Question

- points ARMSBRCALC3 4.3.04. A zoologist is writing a dissertation on the impact of the fish population in Lake Maben since the Bellmore Company built a factory nearby. Initial sampling shows that the fish population can be modeled by p() = 18. (0.7) Osts 10 where represents the number of years since the factory opened, and pt) represents the fish population in hundreds. (a) Determine pt). PY) = (b) Evaluate pli). Round your answer to two decimal places.) P(1) - fish per year Interpret p(1) year(s) after the factory opened, the fish population was decreasing at a rate of Compare p(l) to pts). 8 years after the factory opened, the fish population was decreasing at a rate of fish per year, which is Select the decay rate one year after the factory opened.

Answer 1

< < 1 Given, ple) = 18.10.737 034310 a) TP'le) = 18.(0.7).log(0.7). by Plco)= 18-10-7) log (0-7) pcu = -1.95 yer c) one year after the factory opened, the fish population was decreasing at a date of 1.95² fish per year pl(8)= 18.10.718 log (0.7) pl18)= -0.16 7 After 8 years = decreasing date of bois B fish/year which is 12' times the decay in date. о бие чеа.
