Exponential growth and decay functions are written in standard form F(t) = A₀ • b^(kt), where A₀ is an initial amount, b is the growth factor, k is the growth rate, and t is the time.

A quantity $P$ is an exponential function of time $t .$ Use the given information about the function $P=P_{b} a^{t}$ to: (a) Find values for the parameters $a$ and $P_{0}$. (b) State the initial quantity and the percent rate of growth or decay. $P=1600$ when $t=3$ and $P=1000$ when $t=1$
