  1. Lesson 40: Exponential Population Growth Mini-Theme: Fish

  2. What is the largest freshwater fish to ever be captivated? • The Mekong Giant Catfish • 9 feet long, 646 pounds • Found in the Mekong River in Cambodia

  3. Review Example

  4. Population Growth Example • A pond is stocked with 600 carp. Five months later, there are 672 carp in the pond. The population is growing exponentially. Write the function rule for this scenario. • First use 600 as C • Then use 672 to solve for the constant k.

  5. What is the largest freshwater fish in the United States? • Sturgeon (native to the Pacific Northwest) • Currently faces extinction • Can grow up to 19 feet long and weigh over 1000 pounds. • Some can live as long as 100 years
