The rabbit population started at 65,000 rabbits. The population is decreasing at a rate of 1.5% each year. Write a function r(t) to represent the rabbit population after t years.

• r(t) = 65000(1 - 0.015)^t

• r(t) = 65000(1 + 0.015)^t

• r(t) = 65000(1 - 1.5)^t

• r(t) = 65000(1 + 1.5)^t

The population of a town is currently 6342 and is increasing by a rate of 1.3% each year. Which function represents the population of people, P, after t years.

• P = 6342(1 + 1.3)^t

• P = 6342(1 – 1.3)^t

• P = 6342(1 + .013)^t

• P = 6342(1 – .013)^t
