A certain species of bird was introduced in a certain county 25 years ago. Biologists observe that the population doubles every 10 years, and now the population is 15,000. (a) What was the initial size of the bird population? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number) birds (b) Estimate the bird population 9 years from now. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number) birds (c) Sketch a graph of the bird population.
