Question 970090: Word problem:
The population growth of an animal species is described by
F(t)= 900+ 40 log3 (2t+1) where t is measured in months. Find the population of this species in an area 4 months after the species is introduced.

F(4)=900 +40 log3 (8+1) F is population
= 900 + 40 log3 (9)
But log 3 (9)=2 because 3^2 =9
Therefore, F(4)=900 +40 (2)=980 individuals.
