A population of a town grows according to the law of uninhibited growth modeled by the function P(t) = Poekt !! where P is measured in thousands and t is measured in years. If the initial population of this town was 12,000 and it doubles every 8 years, find the growth rate, k. Provide EXACT value for k. Then approximate it to FOUR decimal places. Show all the steps and write the final answer in the space provided. Exact k= Approximate:
