Question

Consider this scenario: For each year tt, the population of a forest of trees is represented by the function A(t)=115(1.025)tA(t)=115(1.025)^t. In a neighboring forest, the population of the same type of tree is represented by the function B(t)=82(1.029)tB(t)=82(1.029)^t. (Round answers to the nearest whole number.)

Which forest had a greater number of trees initially? By how many?
