<PRE><B>Question 1047837</B>
f the rate of inflation is 3.4% per year, the future price 
p(t) (in dollars) of a certain item can be modeled by the following exponential  function, where t is the number of years from today.
p(t) = 3000(1.034)^t
Find the current price of the item and the price 9 years from today.
----
Current price = p(0) = $3000
-----
p(9) = 3000*1.034^9 = $4053.28
