The population of a small country is modeled by the equation y=525.5e^-0.01t
where y=population (in thousands)
t=the time (in years) with t=0 for the year 2000.
what was the population in the year 2000?

ANSWER

The population in 2000 is 525.5

EXPLANATION

The population is modeled by the equation:

Where y=population (in thousands)

t=the time (in years) with t=0 for the year 2000.

To find the population in the year 2000, we substitite t=0 into the equation to get:

Perform the multiplication in the exponent:

Note that any non-zero number exponent zero is 1.

Any number multiplied by 1 is the same number;

The population in 2000 is 525.5

answer: c

because if you look at the chart you can see a pattern and compare it to the question he simplify out your

but i think the formula is f(x)=6x

square root of 36/6 = 2.449489743

square root of 16/6 = 1.632993162

square root of 6 = 2.449489743

the answer is square root of 16/6 because the square root of 36/6 is the same answer as square root of 6 = 2.449489743
