The bird population on an island is declining at a rate of 2.2% per year the population was 3500 in the year 2016 which answer is the best prediction of population of the year 2022a. 2730b.3063c.3132d.3423

The appropriate decay equation will have the following form: b = ne^(kt).here the initial population is 3500, so b = 3500e^(-0.022[6]).                                                b = 3500e^(-1.32)                                                b = 3500(0.2671) = 934 (rounded down from                                                                                  934.97).
