<u>Part (c)</u>
Decay factor = 2.5% = 0.025 (in decimal form)
<u>Part (d)</u>
General form of exponential decay function:

where:

- r = rate of decay (in decimal form)
- x = time (in years)
Given:


<u>Part (e)</u>
To determine the city's population in 2008:


1/3 of (x mulltiplied by 5) = 20. 1 * x * 5 all divided by 3 = 20 5/3x = 20 x = 20 * 3/5 x = 12 therefore the number == 60. I hope i was able to help u
