A city had a population of 110,000 in 1920. The population grew at a rate of 1% per year thereafter.
Which function could model this situation?
f(x) = 110,000(1)*
f(x) = 110,000(1.01)*
f(x) = 110,000(1.1)*
f(x) = 110,000(0.01)*

To estimate the population in 1922 using the function f(x) = 110,000(1.01)*, we substitute x = 2 (since 1922 is 2 years after 1920) into the function:
f(2) = 110,000(1.01)^2
f(2) = 110,000(1.0201)
f(2) ≈ 112,211.01
Rounding to the nearest whole number, the estimated population in 1922 is 112,211 people.
f(2) = 110,000(1.01)^2
f(2) = 110,000(1.0201)
f(2) ≈ 112,211.01
Rounding to the nearest whole number, the estimated population in 1922 is 112,211 people.
