A grey squirrel population was introduced in a certain county of Great Britain 30 years ago. Biologists observe that the population doubles every 6 years, and now the population is 60,000. (a) What was the initial size of the squirrel population? squirrels (b) Estimate the squirrel population 10 years from now. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.) squirrels (c) Sketch a graph of the squirrel population. (Assume t = 0 corresponds to the initial introduction.)
