Answer:

For the answer to the questions above,

A) Parrots are following a Geometric Progression of 15% increase.

20(1.15), 20(1.15)², 20(1.15)³,

Function = 20(1.15)^n Where n is at the end of year, n =1, 2, 3, ..

Snakes are increasing by 4.

28, 32, 36,....

Function = 24 + 4n n = number of end year, n =1, 2, 3,...

B) After 10 years:

Parrot = 20(1.15)¹⁰ = 80.91115471

Snakes = 24 + 4(10) = 64

C) After what time they are the same:

We use trial and error:

Test: n 20(1.15^n) (24 + 4n)

1 23 28

2 26.45 32

3 30.41 36

4 34.98 40

5 40.23 44

6 46.26 48

7 53.20 52

8 61.18 56

9 70.36 60

After year 7, the Parrots increases far more.

At year 7 they are roughly the same.
