The population in a certain city was 58,000 in 2000, and its future size is predicted to be P(t)=58,000e0.016t where t is the number of years afer 2000 A. Does this model indicate that the population is increasing or decreasing? B. Use this function to estimate the population of the city in 2009. (Riund to the nearest whole number as needed) C. Use this function to esitmate the population of the city in 2016. (Round to the nearest whole number as needed)
