The population of a town is modeled by an exponential function. The initial population is 55,000 people. After the first year, the population of the town is 59,500 people. If the population of the town continues to grow at the same rate each year as the first which function can be used to model the population after x years?

• p(x) = 59,500(1.097)^x

• p(x) = 55,000(1.082)^x

• p(x) = 59,500(0.082)^x

• p(x) = 55,000(0.924)^x
