A midwestern city finds its residents moving to the suburbs. Its population is declining according to the function P(t) = P0 e-0.04t, where t is time measured in years and P0 is the population at time t = 0. Assume that P0 = 1,000,000.
(a) Find the population at time t = 1 to the nearest thousand.
(b) How long, to the nearest tenth of a year, will it take for the population to decline to 750,000?
