Answer:
1. 1987 Moose Population: 4,000 (P=300, t=1; every 1 year, 300 Moose)
2. 2009 Moose Population: 10,600
Step-by-step explanation:
- 1992 Moose Pop: 5,500
- 1996 Moose Pop: 6,700
- 1996-1992=4 years apart
- 6,700-5,500= 1,200 Moose
- 1200/4= 300 new Moose every 1 Year
- 1992-1987= 5 Years
- 300 times 5 = 1,500 Moose
- 5,500-1,500= 4,000
- 1987 Moose Pop: 4,000
- 2009-1996=13
- 300 times 13 = 3,900
- 3,900 + 6,700 = 10,600
- 2009 Moose Pop: 10,600
