Population Models
New Zealand's rabbit population was estimated to be 25 million in 2010 and 35 million in 2020. Model the population of the rabbits with R(t) where t = 0 corresponds to the year 2010.

What is an appropriate value for the growth-rate k?
What would you predict the population to be in the year 2030?
