Answer:
2372
Step-by-step explanation:
Filling in a 7 for x gives you
[tex]y=14.08(2.08)^7[/tex]
Raise 2.08 to the power of 7 to get
y = 14.08(168.4392677) and multiply to get
y = 2371.62489
Since we cannot have a decimal amount of fish, the population will round to 2372 as a whole number
Answer:
2372 fish
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
y = 14.08 • 2.08^x
where y represents the number of fish in a lake and x represents the year.
In order to predict the number of fish in year 7, just replace x = 7 in the above equation, to get:
y = 14.08 • 2.08^(7)
y = 2371.6 ≅ 2372
