The populations \(P\) (in thousands) of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania from 2000 through 2007 can be modeled by \(P=\frac{2632}{1+0.083 e^{0.0500 t}}\) where \(t\) represents the year, with \(t=0\) corresponding to \(2000 .\) (Source: U.S. Census Bureau) (a) Use the model to find the populations of Pittsburgh in the years \(2000,2005,\) and 2007 . (b) Use a graphing utility to graph the function. (c) Use the graph to determine the year in which the population will reach 2.2 million. (d) Confirm your answer to part (c) algebraically.
Find the exponential model \(y=a e^{b x}\) that fits the points shown in the graph or table. $$ \begin{array}{|l|l|l|} \hline x & 0 & 4 \\ \hline y & 5 & 1 \\ \hline \end{array} $$
A logarithmic model has the form ________ or ________.
The graph of a Gaussian model is ________ shaped, where the ________ ________ is the maximum -value of the graph.
The populations \(P\) (in thousands) of Horry County, South Carolina from 1970 through 2007 can be modeled by \(P=-18.5+92.2 e^{0.0282 t}\) where \(t\) represents the year, with \(t=0\) corresponding to 1970\. (Source: U.S. Census Bureau) (a) Use the model to complete the table. $$ \begin{array}{|l|l|l|l|l|l|} \hline \text { Year } & 1970 & 1980 & 1990 & 2000 & 2007 \\ \hline \text { Population } & & & & & \\ \hline \end{array} $$ (b) According to the model, when will the population of Horry County reach \(300,000 ?\) (c) Do you think the model is valid for long-term predictions of the population? Explain.
