The Population of a Region for 2000 Is 19 $y = C e ^ { k t }$

Multiple Choice

The population of a region for 2000 is 19.5 (in millions) . The predicted population (in millions) for the region in the year 2020 is 24. Find the constants C (to one decimal place) and k (to four decimal places) to obtain the experimental growth model $y = C e ^ { k t }$ for the population. (Let $t = 0$ correspond to the year 2000.)

A) $y = 19.5 e ^ { 0.0045 t }$
B) $y = 7.2 e ^ { 1.2076 t }$
C) $y = 19.5 e ^ { 0.2076 t }$
D) $y = 19.5 e ^ { 0.0104 t }$
E) $y = 7.2 e ^ { 0.0604 t }$
