8) A population of rabbits in a forest area grows at the rate of 5% monthly starting with 180 rabbits in July, and can be modeled by the exponential equation y = 180(2.770.05t, where y is
the number of rabbits in the forest, and t is the number of months that have passed. Find
how many rabbits (rounded to the nearest whole number) should be expected by next July.
