an initial population of 765 quail increases at an annual rate of 16%. write an exponential function to model the quail population. what will the approximate population be after 4 years?

Respuesta :

An exponential function to model the quail population is y = 765(1+0.16)ⁿ and the approximate population be after 4 years is 1384.65 quails.

Population growth is seen to increase at an exponential rate. We use the following to model this growth.

y = A₀(1 + r)ⁿ

where

y = value at time

A₀ = original value

r = rate of growth

n = time elapsed

An exponential function that models the quail population is set up like:

y = 765(1+0.16)ⁿ

so that, for example, if we wanted to figure out the population at time (4 years), then we would set up the function as follows,

y = 765(1+0.16)⁴

y = 765(1.16)⁴

y = 765* 1.81

to get

y = 1384.65 quails after 4 year has elapsed.

Hence, an exponential function to model the quail population is y = 765(1+0.16)ⁿ and the approximate population be after 4 years is 1384.65 quails.
