Question 270648: The population growth of an animal species is described by the equation:
F(t)=700+50 log(3) (2t+1)
where t is in months. Can you help me find the population of this species in an area 13 month(s) after the species is introduced?
Thanks

f%28t%29+=+700+%2B+50%2Alog%283%2C%282t+%2B+1%29%29
f%2813%29+=+700+%2B+50%2Alog%283%2C%282%2A13+%2B+1%29%29
f%2813%29+=+700+%2B+50%2Alog%283%2C27%29
f%2813%29+=+700+%2B+50%2A3 (because 3%5E3+=+27)
f%2813%29+=+700+%2B+150
f%2813%29+=+850
The population will be 850 in 13 months
