1. Warm Up A population of 30 deer lives in a forest. In your notebook, calculate how the population size changes during the five years listed below: A population of 30 deer lives in a forest. In your notebook, calculate how the population size changes during the five years listed below: 1. In the first year, 10 deer are born and 5 die 1. In the first year, 10 deer are born and 5 die 2. In the second year, 8 deer are born and non die. 2. In the second year, 8 deer are born and non die. 3. In the third year, 7 deer are born and 2 die. 3. In the third year, 7 deer are born and 2 die. 4. In the fourth year, 12 deer are born, 8 die, and 10 leave the forest. 4. In the fourth year, 12 deer are born, 8 die, and 10 leave the forest. 5. In the fifth year, 6 deer are born, 10 die, 12 leave the forest. 5. In the fifth year, 6 deer are born, 10 die, 12 leave the forest.
