Question

the population of a community was 200 people 10 years ago today the population is 550 people find an exponential growth function that models the data for the past 10 years using this model when will the population reach a thousand

Answer 1

f(x) = 200 * (550/200)^(1/10*x) = 200 * 1.106453761^x

f(x) = 200 * 1.106453761^x = 1000 --> x = LN(1000/200)/LN(1.106453761) = 15.90981082
