The Mathnasium word problem menagerie is getting bigger and bigger, and this week, we're all about a beautiful tropical bird with a formidable beak and lots of character! On this fine, feathery Word Problem Wednesday, try solving our toucan word problem and check back tomorrow for the answer.
A biologist is monitoring a flock of toucans. The biologist determines that the number of toucans in the flock can be estimated using the function f(n) = 22 + 3n, wherein n is the number of toucan nests that the biologist counts in the flock’s territory. If the biologist counts 5 nests, what is the estimated number of toucans?
