The fish population in a local stream is decreasing at a rate of 3% per year. The original population was 48,000. Write an exponential function to model this situation. Then find the population after 7 years.

Results are below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Decrease rate (d)= 7%

Number of periods (n)= 7 years

Current population (PV)= 48,000

First, to calculate the future value, we need to use the following decrease exponential formula:

FV= PV*[(1+d)^-n]

After 7 years:

FV= 48,000*(1.07^-7)

FV= 29,892

the answer is d

y+3=-4(x-2)

y+3=-4x+8
