Question 842477: A herd of deer is introduced onto a small island. At first the herd increases rapidly, but eventually food resources dwindle and the population declines. It can be shown by means of calculus that the rate R (in deer per year) at which the deer population changes at time t is given by R = −4t3 + 38t.
(a) When does the population cease to grow? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
after t = Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect. years
