Question

Let P(t) be the deer population t years from now. The exponential function for the increasing population can be represented as:
P(t) = 435 * (1 + 0.09)^t

P(t) = 435 * (1.09)^t

where t is the number of years from now.

b) Predict the number of deer that will be in the region after six years.

To predict the number of deer that will be in the region after six years, we plug in t = 6 into the exponential function:

P(6) = 435 * (1.09)^6
P(6) = 435 * 1.626176
P(6) ≈ 707.237

Therefore, the predicted number of deer in the region after six years is approximately 707.
