An initial population of 712 quail increases at an

 annual rate of 24%.  Write an exponential function

to model the quail population.

 

 f(x) =  712(0.24)x

 f(x) = 712(0.76)x

value at a rate of 23% each year.   What is the value

of the car in 5 years?

In the year 2000, the population in Canada was

about 85 million and growing at a rate of

1.32% each year.  At this growth rate, the

function f(x) = 85(1.0132)x gives the population,

in millions, x years after 2000.  Using this model,

in what year will the population reach 100 million?

2011

2012

2013

2014

 

The equation f(x) = 3,150(.95)x represents the

declining populations of cardinals in one Michigan

2.1 x 1024 cardinals

2395 cardinals

14 rabbits

12 rabbits

16 rabbits

18 rabbits

The rabbit population that is in the back of Mrs.

Maynard's house is growing at a rate of 18%

per year.  If there are 8 rabbits trying to get into

her garden in 2012, how many rabbits will be

trying to get in in 2016?

(round to the nearest whole rabbit)
