An animal population currently has 7500 members and is reproducing at a rate of R(t)= 2280 + 70t members per year. The proportion
of members that survive after t years is given by S(t)=1/(t+1)..
(a) How many of the original members survive three years?
animals
(b) How many new members are added during the next three years?
animals
(c) Explain why the animal population three years from now is not the same as the sum of your answers from parts (a) and (b).
Some of the the new animals reproduced.
All of the original animals survive.
O All of the new animals survive.
O Not all of the original animals survive.
Not all of the new animals survive.

TER
A drug is administered intravenously to a patient at the rate of 13 mg/h. The patient's body eliminates the drug over time so that after t
hours the proportion that remains is e-0.23t. If the patient currently has 60 mg of the drug in her bloodstream, how much of the drug is
present eight hours from now? (Round your answer to one decimal place.)
