Special Rounding Instructions For this exercise set, round all regression parameters to three decimal places, but round all other answers to two decimal places unless otherwise indicated. Gray Wolves in WisconsinGray wolves were among the first mammals protected under the Endangered Species Act in the 1970s. Wolves recolonized in Wisconsin beginning in 1980.Their population grew reliably after 1985 as follows: Year Wolves Year Wolves 1985 15 1993 40 1986 16 1994 57 1987 18 1995 83 1988 28 1996 99 1989 31 1997 145 1990 34 1998 178 1991 40 1999 197 1992 45 2000 266 a.

Growth in Length of HaddockA study by Raitt showed that the maximum length that a haddock could be expected to grow is about 53centimeters.Let D=D(t) denote the difference between 53centimeters and the length at age t years. The table below gives experimentally collected values for D. Age t Difference D 2 28.2 5 16.1 7 9.5 13 3.3 19 1.0 a.Find an exponential model of D as a function of t. b.Let L=L(t) denote the length in centimeters of a haddock at age t years. Find the model for L as a function of t. c.Plot the graph of the experimentally gathered data for the length L at ages 2,5,7,13, and 19years along with the graph of the model you made for L. Does this graph show that the 5year old haddock is a bit shorter or a bit longer than would be expected? d.A fisherman has caught a haddock that measures 41centimeters. What is the approximate age of the haddock?
