First we find k by using the two values given: P=Ae^(kt), 8 years between-->t=8 199 = 195•e^(8k) Log 199 = Log [195•e^(8k)] Log 199 = Log 195 + 8k 8k = Log 199 - Log 195 k = 0.00882/8 = .0011 Next, we plug the new data in using this k: 14 years between 2002-2016-->t=14 P = Ae^my P = 199mi.•e^(14•.0011) P = 199mi.•e^(.0154) P = 199mi. • 1.0155 = 202,088,000
