Scientists were studying a rare species of parrot. They went to a forest in the year 2010 and found there were 608 parrots in the forest. When the scientists went back

5 years later, they found 4617 parrots. Which is the function to show p, the number

of parrots t years after 2010.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of parrots in t years after 2010 can be modeled by the following function:

In which P(0) is the number of parrots in 2010 and r is the growth rate, as a decimal.

608 parrots in the forest in 2010.

This means that

Then

When the scientists went back  5 years later, they found 4617 parrots.

This means that

We use this to find 1 + r. So

So
