Answer 3

Please show your work. If you REALLY have no idea how to proceed, you should be in a different class or your teacher is a sadist.

Show your work! Anything. Throw us a bone we can work with.

Answer 4

i dont have any work. i havent done this for two years and they want us to review so ive forgotten all of it.

Answer 5

That's really an inadequate response. Why are you in this class?

Exponential Growth usually looks like this: \(A(t) = A_{0}e^{kt}\)

We're starting in the year 2000 with 12.7 million.

Now, we have: \(A(0) = A_{0}e^{k(0)} = 12.7 \rightarrow A_{0} = 12.7\)

We have 15 million in 2020 (20 years later).

Now, we have: \(A(20) = 12.7e^{k(20)} = 15 \rightarrow k = 0.0083224\)

And there is the model for Part 1. Back up to that last step and reproduce the process for Part 2.

Answer 6

how did you do that last step?

Answer 7

Logarithms. You must be familiar with logarithms. you may need more review on this process.

Answer 8

ok thanks

Answer 9

i got it. the second one is 12.e^(.002t). thanks

Answer 10

I get 0.002219309. Good work!
