5 Deer population A herd of 100 deer is introduced onto a small island. At first the herd increases rapidly, but eventu- ally food resources dwindle and the population declines. Suppose that the number N(t) of deer after t years is given by N(t) = -t + 21r2 + 100, where t> 0. (a) Determine the values of t for which N(t) > 0, and sketch the graph of N. (b) Does the population become extinct? If so, when?
