You can find the population of birds in a certain area from 1960-2000 using the function
fx=1000 square root of x-1950. Using this model, in which year was the population of birds in the area 5000?
To find the year in which the population of birds in the area was 5000, we need to set up the equation:
5000 = 1000 * √(x - 1950)
Divide both sides by 1000:
5 = √(x - 1950)
Square both sides to solve for x:
25 = x - 1950
Add 1950 to both sides:
1975 = x
Therefore, the population of birds in the area was 5000 in the year 1975.
