An initial population of 175 quail increases at an annual rate of 22%. Write an exponential function to model the quail population. What will the approximate population be after 5 years?
Exponential function model: [tex]f ( t ) = 175 *1.22 ^{t} [/tex] After 5 years: t = 5 f ( 5 ) = 175 * 1.22^5 = 175 * 2.70271 = 473 Answer : Approximate population after 5 years will be 473.
