Question 930460: Please Help:
The bilious mayor of Duckberg calls the mild mannered young city planner into his office to for a report on the city's projected population growth. The planner explains that the city's population is growing according to P(t)=68,378e^.03t, where t is in years and t= 0 is the present year. The mayor asks how long (in years) that formula predicts it will take to double the city's population. What should the planner answer?
Thank You
