The wildlife game commission poured 5 cans of fish (each can contained approximately 100 fish) into a farmer's lake. The function N defined by N (t) = 600t +500 represents the approximate number of 0.5t + 1 fish in the lake as a function of time (in years). Which one of the following best describes how the number of fish in the lake changes over time? O (A) The number of fish gets larger each year, but does not exceed 1200. (B) The number of fish gets larger each year, but does not exceed 500. (C) The number of fish gets larger each year, but does not exceed 600. (D) The number of fish gets smaller every year, but does not get smaller than 500. (E) The number of fish gets smaller every year but does not get smaller then 1200.
