the time issue on this one is in years from 1995; so convert the dates to "years since 1995"

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the idea is to solve for the "rate" at which the populations changes. P = A e^(kt) ; lets algebra this to solve for k, divide out the A P/A = e^(kt) ; to undo that "e" we have to log it ln(P/A) = kt ; now divide out the t to solve for k ln(P/A) ------ = k; we can use this as a formula to determine k t

OpenStudy (amistre64):

A = past/starting amount; P= present amount k = rate we are solving for t = time in years that have passed by
