Starting in the year 2000, the number of speeding tickets issued each year in Middletown is predicted to grow according to an exponential growth model. During the year 2000, Middletown issued 200 speeding tickets Every year thereafter, the number of speeding tickets issued is predicted to grow by 10%.

If P_N denotes the predicted number of speeding tickets issued during the year 2000 + N, then
◦ P_N = 200 × (1.1)^N-1
◦ P_N = 200 × (0.1)^N-1.
◦ P_N = 200 × (1.1)^N.
◦ P_N = 200 × (0.1)^N.
◦ none of these
