I need you help with this question:
The change in the population of a township founded in 1930 can be described by the function P(t)=10000*e^(-0.02t).
At what rate is the population changing every year?
:
The population would be losing 2% every year
:
Check on the graph, the given equation is red, -2% per year is green
