Answer: 644,800

Step-by-step explanation:

This can also be solved using the terms of Arithmetic Progressions.

Let the 13 years be number of terms of the sequences (n)

Therefore ;

T₁₃              = a + ( n - 1 )d , where a = 310,000 and d = 9% of 310,000

9% of 310,000 = 9/100 x 310,000

                        = 27,900

so the common difference (d)

                     d = 27,900

Now substitute for the values  in the formula above and calculate

T₁₃              = 310,000 + ( 13 - 1 ) x 27,900

                  = 310,000 + 12 x 27,900

                  = 310,000 + 334,800

                  = 644,800.

The population after 13 years = 644,800.

Answer:

y=4(3)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

From the table given in the question,

x            y              Difference                  Ratio

1            12                     -                             -

2           36              36-12 = 24              \frac{36}{12}=3

3          108            108-36 = 72             \frac{108}{36}=3

4          324            324-108 = 216        \frac{324}{108}=3

5          972            972-324 = 648      \frac{648}{216}=3

There is a common ratio of 3 in each successive term.

Therefore, data given in the table will represent an exponential function.

y=a(b)^x

For a point (1, 12),

12=a(b)^1

ab=12 ------(1)

For another point of the table (2,36),

36=a(b)^2

ab^2=36 --------(2)

Equation (2) divided by equation (1)

\frac{ab^2}{ab}=\frac{36}{12}

b=3

From equation (1),

3a=12

a=4

Therefore, exponential function will be,

y=4(3)^x
