For the following exercises, consider this scenario: For each year t, the population of a forest of trees is represented by the function A(t) = 115(1.025)t. In a neighboring forest, the population of the same type of tree is represented by the function B(t) = 82(1.029)t. (Round answers to the nearest whole number.)
Using MS-Excel, which forest’s population is growing at a faster rate?
Which forest had a greater number of trees initially? By how many?
Assuming the population growth models continue to represent the growth of the forests, which forest will have a greater number of trees after 20 years? By how many?
Assuming the population growth models continue to represent the growth of the forests, which forest will have a greater number of trees after 50 years? By how many?
