lets say this rabbit populatio pushes out the native chipmunk population taking over their natrual habitat. suppose we started with 750,000 chipmunks and each year they are losing one third (1/3) of their population write an equation for this scenario

750,000 * ( 1 - 33.3%) ^ no. of years

Step-by-step explanation:

The compound interest formula can be used for this as it shows the change in an amount as a result of a certain rate.

First find the rate:

-1/3 = -33.3%

Rate is negative because it represents a loss.

Formula:

= Amount * (1 + rate) ^ no. of periods

= 750,000 * ( 1 - 33.3%) ^ no. of years

i got 86 for this

hope this !
