Step-by-step explanation:
You start with 12 wolves in the population.
Each year, the wolf population will increase by 2 years.
Let x represent the number of years.
Let P represent the total population.
Considering all this, P = 2x + 12.
In this case, we want to find how many wolves will be in the population in 50 years. Therefore, we will need to plug 50 into the equation in place of x.
P = 2(50) + 12
Simply to get your answer.
