Do you mean : n(t)=67e^.0025t?

Well then, for 1993: t=0

n(0)=67e^.0025(0) plug in 0 for t, 0*anything=0

=67e^0 anything^0=1

=67 million multiply 1*67

2010: t=17 17 years after 1993

n(17)=67e^.0025(7) plug in 7 for t, multiply out

=67e^.0175 CALCULATE on calculator after this step

=68.18 million
