The function that models exponential growth is:
P(t) = P0*(1 + r)^t, where
P0 = P(0) is the initial value of P
r is the growth rate as a decimal
In our case we have:
P(0) = 2800
r = 0.035 or 3.5%
P(t) = 2800*(1 + 0.035)^t
P(t) = 2800*(1.035)^t
The same exponential function written using y and t is:
y = 2800*1.035^t.

The answer is C) 14 years.
Plug it in to check:
12500(1+0.0525)^14
12500(2.05) = 25,587.01 (rounded to 25000)
Answer:
Options A and B are true
(A) Before the authority increases tolls on any of the area bridges, it is required by law to hold public hearings at which objections to the proposed increase can be raised.
B. (B) Whenever bridge tolls are increased, the authority must pay a private contractor to adjust the automated toll-collecting machines.
Step-by-step explanation:
A. In a developed society, it's imperative for the authority to hold public hearings with stake holders to air their views before the tolls are increased, this would enable the authority to carry out proper assessment to know both the positive and negative impact of increasing the toll.
B. Increasing the tolls implies that there must be adjustment in the automated tolling machines and this would incur cost on the authority, this contract would be executed by private contractors.
