Question 1201104: Starting in the year 2012, the number of speeding tickets issued each year in Middletown is predicted to grow according to an exponential growth model. During the year 2012, Middletown issued 210 speeding tickets (P0=210). Every year thereafter, the number of speeding tickets issued is predicted to grow by 10%.
If Pn denotes the predicted number of speeding tickets during the year
2012 + n, then
Write the recursive formula for Pn
Pn= ___ * Pn-1
