The video tutorial explains how to model the population decline of a fictional town, Lehigh, using exponential regression. It covers setting up the regression on a calculator, calculating the exponential model, and interpreting the results. The tutorial also demonstrates how to find the population at a specific year and determine the time it takes for the population to reach a certain number or halve.

What does the variable 'T' represent in the context of this problem?

• The decay rate

• The year of the population peak

• The number of years after 1880

• The initial population

Which key sequence is used to clear old data in the calculator?

• RIGHT, CLEAR, ENTER

• STAT, CALC, ENTER

• UP, CLEAR, ENTER

• STAT, ENTER, CLEAR

How do you calculate the percent decrease per year from the decay factor?

• Divide B by 100
