Question 475233
A town's population increase in one year from 100,000 to 120,000. If the population is growing linearly at a steady rate, what will the town's population be at the end of three years?
------------------
Slope = 20,000
Intercept = 100,000
---
p(t) = 20,000t + 100,000
---
P(3) = 20,000(3) = 100,000
P(3) = 160,000
