Respuesta :

sqdancefan

Answer:

  2055 km²

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of forest remaining after t years can be modeled by the exponential equation ...

  remaining = original · (multiplier each year)^(number of years)

  area = 4100·0.955^t

Then for t=15, the area is ...

  area = 4100·0.955^15 ≈ 2055.1 . . . . km²

The area of the forest after 15 years will be about 2055 square kilometers.
