In tropical regions, mosquito populations tend to fluctuate periodically over the course of a
year. Suppose the mosquito population in a tropical region can be modeled by the function
A (t) = 80 cos ( t) +130, where A(t) represents the mosquito population (in thousands) t
weeks after the beginning of the year.

population equal 200 thousand? If the mosquito population equals 200 thousand more than
once during the year, select each instance.
