Answer:

a) 600,000 (1.018)ᵗ, the graph is below:

* "t" is the years. 2000 is the first year, so "t" would be 1. 2012 is the 12th year so "t" would be 12.

b) As the years go by, the population increases. The years (X), and population (Y) both increase together. The graph shows that when the years increase the population increases.

c) In 2012, which would be 12 years later, I predict the population would be around 743,232 people.
