the population of turtles is 5000 and decreasing by 2% each year. What will the population be in 5 years?

Question

pls hurry

Answer 1

P(t) = P₀*(1+r)^t

• P(t) = population of turtles at time t
• P₀ = initial turtle population = 5000
• r = rate = -2% = -0.02
• t = years = 5

 

P(5) = 5000*(1 - 0.02)⁵
