Question 1130984: The population P of a city grows exponentially according to the function
P(t) = 5500(1.1)^t, 0 ≤ t ≤ 8
where t is measured in years.
(a) Find the population at time
t = 0
and at time
t = 4.
P(0) =
P(4) =
(b) When, to the nearest year, will the population reach 11,000? ________yr

, where is measured in years.
(a) the population at time
and at time
so,
(b) When, to the nearest year, will the population reach ? ________yr
..............take log of both sides
.....round to the nearest whole number
the population will reach in yr
