Summary:
This is an open-ended modeling example using difference equations and Algebra II skills.
Description
The example is an open-ended modeling exercise for students with Algebra II skills.
The students are asked to a build a model with difference equations (like recursively defined sequences with time steps).
The scenario is stocking a lake with trout. The students should decide the details of the scenario
and see how the trout population changes over time.
