Apopulation was recorded at 2,000. it grows at a rate of 4% each year. which equation represents the total population, y, after x years.

a.
y = 2,000(0.96)x

b.
y = 2,000 + 4x

c.
y = 4 + 2,000x

d.
y = 2,000(1.04)x

b

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 5) ← 2 points on the line

m = = = - 3

with m = - 3 and (a, b) = (3, - 5), then

y - (- 5) = - 3(x - 3), that is

y + 5 = - 3(x - 3) → b
