A population of rabbits reproduces in synchrony at discrete time periods each year. If the current population is 150 and its geometric population growth rate is 1.4 per year, the expected size of the population after two years will be

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The population after two years is calculated using the formula for geometric growth: P(t) = P0 * r^t, where P0 is the initial population, r is the growth rate, and t is the time in years. So, 150 * 1.4^2 = 294.
