Modeling with Trigonometric Functions · Exercise 42
Create a function modeling the described behavior. Then, calculate the desired result using a calculator.
Whitefish populations are currently at 500 in a lake. The population naturally oscillates above and below by 25 each year. If humans overfish, taking 4% of the population every year, in how many years will the lake first have fewer than 200 whitefish?
