Question 1148924: The function P= 2.7 e ^ 0.02t models the size of the population of a small country, where P is in millions of people in the year 2000 + t.
a) What was the population in 2000?
b) Use the formula to estimate the population to the nearest tenth of a million in 2017
Type an integer or a decimal Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! P=2.7e^0.02t
in 2000, t=0, so pop was 2.7 million.
in 2017, t=17,
2.7*e^(0.34)=3.79 million or 3.8 million.
