Question

Can someone help me here:

Answer 1

can someone show me the set-up version of this problem

Answer 2

Are you asking like for an example?
A = P(1 + r/n)^nt
where:
A = the accrued amount
P = the original number
r = rate of increase as a decimal
n = number of times compounded per year (will be 1 in this case)
t = time in years

Answer 3

Assume that both of problems follow exponential growth/decay rule with general function is:

y=y(0)ekt

with k is growth/decay constant rate.

(1) Deer population function
y(0) = 1253
k = 3%
t = 6 (years)

So y(6) = 1253 . e^(0.03*6) ~ 1500 (deers)

The answer is approximated, so the most close correct option is C: 1496 deers

(2) Growth factor b is rate 9.5% = 0.095 (A)
