Solve the problem.
-The population growth of an animal species is described by F(t) = 300 + 20 log3 (2t + 1), where t is measured in months. Find the population of this species in an area 4 month(s) after the species is
Introduced.
A) 260
B) 180
C) 340
D) 480

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Substitute t = 4 in F(t) = 300 + 20 log3 (2t + 1)
F(4) = 300 + 20 log3 (2(4) + 1)
F(4) = 300 + 20 log3 9
F(4) = 300 + 20(2)
F(4) = 340
Therefore, the population of the species after 4 months is 340.
