The population in millions of arctic flounder (a type of fish) in the Atlantic Ocean is modeled by the function $$P(t)=\frac{9t+48}{0.8t^2+1}$$, where $$t$$ is measured in years. 1. What is the initial flounder population? 2. What is $$P^{?}(12)$$ rounded to 2 decimal places? In your explanation below, interpret this result. Show your work and explain, in your own words, how you arrived at your answer.
