The population of a town is growing exponentially and can be modeled by the
equation f(t) = 42. e(0.015). The population is measured in thousands, and time is
measured in years 1950.

C. According to this model approximately what is the population in 1960?

Sagot :

The population of the town in 1960 is 48.80 thousands

How to determine the population in 1950?

The equation of the model is given as:

f(t) = 42e^(0.015t)

1960 is 10 years after 1950.

This means that:

t = 10

Substitute t = 10 in f(t) = 42e^(0.015t)

f(10) = 42e^(0.015 * 10)

Evaluate

f(10) = 48.80

Hence, the population of the town in 1960 is 48.80 thousands
