Question

The population, p, of a town after t years is represented using the equation p=10000(1.04)^-t Which of the following is an equivalent expression?

Answer 1

It's C

Explanation:

Answer 2

p=10000(26/25)t

Explanation:

Considering that the population, p, of a town after t years is represented using the equation p=10000(1.04)^-t

The equation is equivalent to p=10000(26/25)t, because;

26/25 = 1.04

Hence; p=10000(26/25)t =p=10000(1.04)^t
