Exponential Growth
By C Gulliksen
Directions and/or Common Information:
In 1990 the population of a town was 48,500. In 2000 the population grew to 59,500.Find the rate of the town's growth (round your answer to the nearest 1000th.)
Write an exponential equation to model the town's growth since 1990.
Use the model to predict the population in 2010.
Use the model to predict the population in 1985.
