Late bloomers (ExH). Suppose we start with one pair of baby rabbits, and again they create a new pair every month, but this time let’s suppose that it takes two months before a pair of bunnies is mature enough to reproduce. Make a table for the first 10 months, indicating how many pairs there would be at the end of each month. Do you see a pattern? Describe a general formula for generating the sequence of rabbit-pair counts.
