Exponential Word Problem with Unknown Exponent

The number of research papers in Professor Sycamore area of expertise has been increasing by 5% every year. Given that 30,010 research papers were published this year. Assuming the trend continues, which equation projects the amount of research papers published in x years?

• y = 30,010 (.05)^x

• y = 30,010 (1.05)^x

• y = 30,010 (.95)^x

• y = 30,010 (5)^x

Due to its weakening steel industry, Canalave Town has been experiencing a population decline of 10% every year. The current population is 74,000 people. Assuming the trend continues, which equation projects the population in x years?

• y = 74,000 (0.10)^x

• y = 74,000 (0.90)^x

• y = 74,000 (1.10)^x

• y = 74,000 (1.90)^x
