In 1990, the estimated population of Pottsville, USA was 34173. By 1991, the population had grown to 36472. Assuming that the growth is linear, construct a linear equation that expresses the population, P, of Pottsville t years since 1990. P(t) Assuming that the growth is exponential, construct an exponential equation that expresses the population, P, of Pottsville t years since 1990. P(t) = If the population of Pottsville is growing at a linear rate, estimate the population in the year 1996. If the population of Pottsville is growing at a linear rate the population in the year 1996 will be approximately people. If the population of Pottsville is growing at an exponential rate, estimate the population in the year 1996. If the population of Pottsville is growing at an exponential rate, the population in the year 1996 will be approximately people.
