There is a short and simple project that asks you to determine a model (fit for an exponential curve) for one of two datasets, use it to make a prediction and to determine an annual average rate of growth.you can either use the data bellow for the number if Starbucks worldwide (version 1) or you can find your own data for something that interests you.

version 1: the following data from the website statistia.com gives the number of Starbucks worldwide from 2005 to 2019

Year	U.s.	International	Total
2005	7302	2939
2006	8896	3544
2007	10684	4327
2008	11567	5113
2009	11128	5507
2010	11131	5727
2011	10787	6216
2012	11045	7021
2013	11457	8310
2014	11962	9404
2015	12521	10522
2016	13172	11913
2017	13930	13409
2018	14606	14698
2019	15041	16202

A) Fit an exponential model to the worldwide data and what your model is, as an equation, y....= Round a to one decimal and b to three decimals

B) What has been the average annual rate of growth in Starbucks worldwide from 2005 to 2019

C) According to your model, what is the predicted number os Starbucks stores worldwide in 2025
