Question

completar el espacio en blanco 1 punto question 7a (workbook): from 2005 to 2015, a population of p lions is modeled by the equation p = 1500·(0.98)^t, where t is the number of years since 2005. about how many lions were there in 2005? about ingrese su respuesta... lions

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the value of t for 2005

Since \( t \) is the number of years since 2005, for the year 2005, \( t = 0 \).

Step2: Substitute t = 0 into the equation

The equation for the population of lions is \( p = 1500 \cdot (0.98)^t \). Substituting \( t = 0 \), we know that any non - zero number to the power of 0 is 1, so \( (0.98)^0=1 \). Then \( p = 1500\times1 \).

Answer:

1500
