Question 1

The population of a town was about 51,000 in 1910.  In 1935, the population was about 86,000.  Assuming the exponential model, what was the growth rate of the town, to the nearest hundredth of a percent, during this period?
◦ 4.78 % per year
◦ 2.09 % per year
◦ 1.16 % per year
◦ 20.9 % per year

Question 2

A certain radioactive isotope decays at a rate of 0.3% annually. Determine the half-life of this isotope, to the nearest year.
◦ 100 yr
◦ 231 yr
◦ 167 yr
◦ 2 yr
