Answer:

10000 fish species

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]p=5000\cdot2^t[/tex]

Required

Find the population in 2005

2005 is the first year

So: [tex]t = 1[/tex]

Substitute 1 for t in [tex]p=5000\cdot2^t[/tex]

[tex]p=5000\cdot2^t[/tex]

[tex]p = 5000 * 2^1[/tex]

[tex]p = 5000 * 2[/tex]

[tex]p = 10000[/tex]
