Assume the population continues to grow linearly. a) Showing all necessary work, find a formula for the population, P(t) , where t is years since 2000.
b) Using complete sentences, interpret the slope of the formula in part a in the context of the problem.
c) Estimate the moose population in 2020. Should the rangers be concerned about the size of the moose population?
