Question

Write an exponential function to model the following situation.

A population of 110,000 grows 3% per year for 15 years.

How much will the population be after 15 years?

Write an exponential function in terms of x.

Answer 1

y = A(1+ r)^x is general formula for growth

Using A = 110,000 as the initial amount, 3% growth, t as the independent variable and P as the dependent variable we will say

P = 110,000(1.03)^t

Now put in 15 for t and see what the population is after 15 years.
