Q:
The length of time, t (in days), for 25 animals of a particular variety to grow to a population,p, is given by the function: . Round to the nearest tenth, what will the population of animals be after 48 hours?
A:
We want to find p such that
= 2 [48 hours = 2 days]
= 2, multiply both sides by 0.12
= 0.24

=
