The population of rabbits in an area is modeled by the growth equation P(t)=8e^.26t, where P is in the thousands and t is in years. How long will it take for population to reach 25,000?
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Set P(t) to 25000 and solve for t:
\n" ); document.write( "P(t)=8e^(.26t)
\n" ); document.write( "25000 = 8e^(.26t)
\n" ); document.write( "25000/8 = e^(.26t)
\n" ); document.write( "3125 = e^(.26t)
\n" ); document.write( "ln(3125) = .26t
\n" ); document.write( "ln(3125)/.26 = t
\n" ); document.write( "8.047/.26 = t
