3. When a blological researcher arrived on Wombat Island, there were about 1000 wombats on the island. Their population grew quickly Year Estimated Wombat Population 1 2 3 4 1000 2000 4000 8000 2 5 Wombate 16,000 The researcher decided that the population growth followed a geometric sequence. He wrote the explicit formula 8, - 1000(2)"- 1 to model the growth, and used this formula to predict the populations for years 6, 10, and 50. Do you agree with the researcher's method of predicting the populations? Why or why not?
