Question 1188533: A rabbit population in the absence of predators and with abundant food, doubles every year. My nieces convinced my brother to let them keep a pair of bunnies that showed up to their house 3 years ago. Write an exponential model that predicts the number of bunnies at time t, where t represents the number of years since the first bunnies appeared. How many bunnies are hopping around my brother’s backyard today? How many will he be left with when his daughters are all grown in 5 years?
