Question 1029083: The number of cars and light trucks sold in China is increasing exponentially and can be estimated by: N(t)=1.09(1.3)^t, where N(t) is in millions of vehicles and t is the number of years after 2000.
A.) Estimate the number of cars and light trucks sold in China in 2000,2010, and in 2014.
B.) Graph the function.
My question is how do I figure out the points on the graph? 1.09(1.3)^0,1.09(1.3)^10, 1.09(1.3)^14 or? Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! You can't really find solutions without either
a table of logs, or a calculator with log functions
------------------------
(A)
The number of cars and light trucks sold in China in 2000
1.09 million vehicles
--------------------
The number of cars and light trucks sold in China in 2010
15 million vehicles
--------------------
You can finish for 2014
here's the plot:
