This exercise uses the population growth model. The population of a certain species of fish has a relative growth rate of 1.9% per year. It is estimated that the population in 2010 was 11 million. (a) Find an exponential model n(t)

n(t) = 11e^0.019t

Step-by-step explanation:

The estimated population in 2010 = 11,000,000 = initial population

The growth rate = 1.9% per year = 1.9/100 =

The exponential growth model follows the general form :

n(t) = ae^rt

a = Initial population ; r = growth rate ; t = period

Hence, we have ;

n(t) = 11e^0.019t in millions
