P equals f of t, and that is going to equal 1 ,100 times 1 .053 to the t power.
00:14
I want to evaluate f of zero.
00:17
So that's a way of saying i want to evaluate the population before any growth takes place at time zero.
00:25
In other words, what's my initial population? anything to the zero power is equal to one.
00:33
So for a, i'm going to get 1100.
00:40
For b, i want f of 10.
00:44
So i'm going to put 10 in for my exponent t.
00:50
I'm going to grab a calculator, 1 .053 to the 10th power times 1100.
00:58
I'm told to retain three decimal place.
01:01
So that's 1 ,843 .641...
