1. Consider a population of 200 endangered Northern Right Whales (as of New Year’s Eve, 2011), the last of their kind. In the year 2012 this population shrunk by 6% (-0.06 net population growth).
a. If during that year there were 12 individuals born or immigrating into the population, how many individuals died or emigrated out of the population.
b. If this net rate of population decline continues, how many years, starting with 2013, until the Northern Right Whale population will go extinct?
