The population, P, of six towns with time t in years are given by the following exponential equations:
(i) P = 1000 (1.08) Superscript t (ii) P = 600 (1.12) Superscript t
(iii) P = 2500 (0.9) Superscript t (iv) P = 1200 (1.185) Superscript t
(v) P = 800 (0.78) Superscript t (vi) 2000 (0.99) Superscript t
