To find the answer, we need to look at the graph provided.
1.
Identify the axes: The horizontal axis (bottom) represents the "Number of Months," and the vertical axis (side) represents the "Number of Deer."
2.
Locate the specific month: Find the number
5 on the bottom axis. This represents Month 5.
3.
Find the corresponding data point: Look directly up from the number 5 until you hit the blue line representing the deer population.
4.
Read the value: There is a specific number written right next to the data point for Month 5. That number is
98. You can also verify this by looking across to the left axis; the point is just below the line for 100, which matches the label 98.
Therefore, the deer population in month 5 is 98.
Final Answer:
98
