The population of a town with a 20162016 population of 87 comma 00087,000 grows at a rate of 1.91.9% per year. a. find the rate constant k and use it to devise an exponential growth function that fits the given data. b. in what year will the population reach 145 comma 000145,000?

the required function is .

step-by-step explanation:

from the given table it is noticed that the graph passing through (-3,7), (0,4), (3,1) and (8,-4).

it is a linear function because the value of y is decrease by one as the value of x increase by 1.

the slope of the function is

the slope of the function is -1 and the y-intercept is 4.

the slope intercept form is

where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.

therefore the required function is . the graph of this function is shown below.

35x 3= 105

step-by-step explanation:

35+35= 70   70 + 35= 105
