I presume this is meant to be exponential.
When f(x) = a(b)^x, a represents the starting value, b represents change, and x represents time.
The population began in 2000 (x = 0). This makes the equation equal to 78,500, which is your starting value and population in 2000.
1.02 means that the initial value is multiplied by 1.02 or 102% each year. Therefore, there is a 2% increase.
I don't imagine you could divide with this since the answer would lead to 0.04 but if so i'm an idiot.
The way i would do it is 12 x 0.56 which makes 6.72. (it just makes sense?)
So for the 0.04 he would get back 9.96
The 6.72 he would get back 3.28
Sorry i considered the possibilities.

The base length of the triangle is 4 units, u can count that. and the height of triangle is 2 units, thats the dotted line one.
and the equation of triangle area is (length x height) divided by 2
so in this case it'll be
(4x2) /2
=4 square units
