The correct relation for the sea gull population is: P(t) = 5.3t^(11/7)
Answer:
d. about 66.5 hundred thousand
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
P(t) = 5.3t^(11/7)
Population, P is in hujdred thousand ; t = number of years
Population after 5 years ;
t = 5
P(5) = 5.3 * 5^(11/7)
P(5) = 5.3 * 5^1.5714285
P(5) = 5.3 * 12.542422
P(5) = 66.474840
P(5) = 66.5 (approximately)
Hence, population after 5 years will be about 66.5 hundred thousand.
