Homework Statement
A fishery manager knows that her fish population naturally increases at a rate of 1.4% per month, while 119
fish are harvested each month. Let Fn be the fish population after the nth month, where F0 = 4500 fish. Assume that that process continues indefinitely. Use the infinite series to find the long-term (steady-state) population of the fish exactly.
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
My issue is that I can't seem to set up an expression to evaluate the series. I know that the expression will involve subtracting 119 and use 0.014 to represent the percent increase. If it were only the percent increase, I would be able to set up an expression. But the -119 is really throwing me off.
