The projected population of a certain ethnic group(in millions) can be approximated by p(t) = 37.07(1.016) where t= 0 corresponds to 2000 and 0 st≤ 50. a. Estimate the population of this group for the year 2010. b. What is the instantaneous rate of change of the population when t = 10? a. The population in 2010 is million people. (Round to three decimal places as needed.) b. The instantaneous rate of change in the population when t= 10 is smillion people per year. (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
