Answer :
The expression calculates the population x years from now will be given as y = 1024 (0.75)ˣ.
What is an exponent?
Consider the function:
y = a (1 ± r) ˣ
Where x is the number of times this growth/decay occurs, a = initial amount, and r = fraction by which this growth/decay occurs.
If there is a plus sign, then there is exponential growth happening by r fraction or 100r %
If there is a minus sign, then there is exponential decay happening by r fraction or 100r %
The population of sea turtles decreases by 25% per year. The population size is currently 1,024.
Let y be the population of sea turtles and x be the number of years.
Then we have
y = 1024 (1 - 0.25) ˣ
y = 1024 (0.75) ˣ
