Fitting Exponential Models to Data · Exercise 30

Use this scenario: The population $P$ of an endangered species habitat for wolves is modeled by the function $P\left(x\right)=\frac{558}{1+54.8e^{-0.462x}},$ where $x$ is given in years.

Use the intersect feature to approximate the number of years it will take before the population of the habitat reaches half its carrying capacity.
