100 trout are seeded into a lake. Absent constraint, their population will grow by 70% a year. The lake can sustain a maximum of 2000 trout. How many trout will be in the lake after 2 years.

FV= 289 trout

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

100 trout are seeded into a lake. Absent constraint, their population will grow by 70% a year.

To calculate the number of trouts after 2 years, we need to use the following formula:

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

FV= future value

PV= present value

i= increase rate

n= time period

FV= 100*(1.7^2)

FV= 289 trout
