Q#4 Exponential Functions

The population of White-Tailed Deer in Maine, since 2010, is modeled by a function defined by P(t)=5500e^0.033t where t is the number of years since the population was first measured in 2010.

After how many years will the initial population of White-Tailed Deer in Maine double? Round your answer to the nearest year. The initial population of White-Tailed Deer in Maine will double after approximately how many years.

The revenues of two companies, company A and company B, can be modeled with exponential functions f and g, respectively. The graphs of the two functions are shown, where the revenue is in thousands of dollars and time, t is measured in years. The x-coordinate of the point of intersection is 9.

• The intersection is when the two companies have the same revenue.

• The intersection is when the revenues of two companies grow by the same amount.

• 
  When t>9, g(t)>f(t).

• The revenue for Company A increases at a slower rate than company B’s revenue.

• To determine the revenue for both companies when t=9, at least one of the functions must be known.

  
  

Suppose that the population of Great Blue Herons in South Florida, since 1992 is modeled by a function defined by P(t)=4000⋅e^0.0246t, where t is the number of years since the population was first measured. Based on this model, the initial population of Great Blue Herons in South Florida doubles by the year

Fifteen years ago, Kiki opened a savings account that compounded interest monthly. The function A(t)=7500(1.0016)^12t can be used to determine Kiki's account balance, t years after the account was opened as shown on the graph.

• Domain is[0,∞).
  

• Kiki currently has approximately

  $10,000 in his account

• Left end behavior is as x→0, y→7500.

• Range is[7500,∞).

• Right end behavior is as x→−∞, y→0

Scientists are studying the transmission rate of a virus in mice. To begin the experiment, 7 mice are infected with the virus and are released into a larger population. The function P(t)=7e^0.0942tcan be used to estimate the number of infected mice after t hours as shown on the coordinate grid. What is the viable range?
