The population of a once very popular city of 250,000 people has been decreasing by 3.5% each year. Write an exponential decay function that represents the population after t years

Sagot :

Y= 250000-8750t

3.5 percent of 250000 is 8750, if that’s the amount decreasing each (t) years, you multiply that number by number of years taken into account.

An exponential decay function that represents the population after t years is [tex]\rm f (x) = 250000 (0.965)^t[/tex].

What is an Exponential Function?

An exponential function can be represented in the form f(x) = aˣ.

The population of a city was 250,000

Rate of decay is 3.5%

100 -3.5 = 96.5%

The population after t years is represented by the function

[tex]\rm f (x) = 250000 (0.965)^t[/tex]
