Hi,

If I am understanding the equation for the model correctly:

 models the number of plant species, f(x), on the various islands of the Galapagos chain 

in terms of the area, x, in square miles, of a particular island



Using the model and substituting the area of the Galapagos island

number of plant species on the island =  = 29*2 = 58
