Can someone please walk me through this? The average population growth rate for whitetail deer is 0.35. Hunting laws are set to limit the time allowed for hunting deer with a goal of achieving about a 35% mortality rate on deer to keep the population in check. Years with a higher than 35% mortality will result in an overall decline in the deer population while years with a lower than 35% mortality rate will result in an increased population. If the growth rate exceeds the mortality rate, and the net effect were a 12.5% growth rate, how long would it take the population of deer to double? Express your answer rounded to the nearest tenth. years
Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.
