Question

There are 300 fish in a pond. The fish population is increasing by approximately 15% per year.

Enter an equation that can be used to find the amount of fish in the pond, y, after 6 years.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

P is initial population,

r is rate of increasing per period,

t is number of periods,

Here, P = 300,

r = 15 % = 0.15,

t = 6 years,

Hence, the population of fish after 6 years would be,

A=300 (1.15)^6
