r= .016*100=1.6
R= 1.6%
R=1.6 over 52*100= 0.03076923077 per week
Growth= 0.03
function= P=120(1.016^1/52)^52t
Hope this helps! ^-^

The population growth function is [tex]P=120(1.016)^t.[/tex] To work out the weekly growth rate, we assume that there are 52 weeks per year.
We have to divide [tex]t[/tex] by 52 to get the weekly growth rate.
To identify the weekly growth rate we have to write the function as,
[tex]P=120(1.016)^\frac{t}{52}.[/tex]
To get the weekly growth rate, we have to first simplify the function using the laws of indices namely,[tex]a^{ab}=(a^a)^b[/tex] .
[tex]P=120(1.016)^{\frac{1}{52}t }=120(1.016^\frac{1}{52})^t=120(1.0003)^t=120(1+0.0003)^t.[/tex]
From the equation above we can easily read the growth rate as 0.0003 or [tex]0.03\%[/tex]
