World wide population of humpback whales, P(t) in thousands, t years after 1900 (t<70) can be approximated by * P (t) = 150 (0,960)^t
How many humback whales are alive in 1930?? and in 1960??
I will be putting this to a graph when I can get a number to the problem
THanks so much

It is simple.
first you plug in 30 in the equation and solve for p(t)
I would use Log-function => makes your calculations easier.
log(P[t]) = t* Log(0.960) + Log 150
