The Fairview Nature Reserve is a rectangle that is 0.3 mi. long and 0.75 mi. wide. It is home to approximately 180 chipmunks. If the population density of chipmunks per square mile exceeds 900, there will not be enough resources to sustain them. What is the maximum percent increase of the chipmunk population density that can occur and still have enough resources to survive? Can the reserve support 210 chipmunks? Show all work.
