The seagull population on a small island in the Atlantic Ocean can be calculated using the formula P(t) = 5.3/11/?, where P is the population in hundred thousands, and t is in years. What will the seagull
population on the island be after 5 years? (Round to the nearest tenth.)
a. about 41.6 hundred thousand
c. about 172.4 hundred thousand
about 3.7 x 10' hundred thousand d. about 66.5 hundred thousand

Astudent draws two parabolas on graph paper. both parabolas cross the x-axis at (-4, 0) and (6,0). the y-intercept of thefirst parabola is (0, –12). the y-intercept of the second parabola is (0-24). what is the positive difference between the avalues for the two functions that describe the parabolas? write your answer as a decimal rounded to the nearest tenth.
