(a) An exponential function f is of the form where
a=initial quantity when t=0 and b is the factor by which f changes
when t increases by 1 unit.
In the problem let X: number of years after 1990
Y= amount spent in billions Dollar
So , we have the points (0,557) if the starting year 1990 is taken as initial point. Another point is (13, 947). Our model is therefore
Hence the exponential function becomes
(b) The amount spent in the year 2000 is
( here t=10).

7 Chapter Task The Half-Life of Caffeine Caffeine is a stimulant found in many products, such as coffee, tea, pop, and chocolate. When you drink a cup of tea or eat a chocolate bar, you ingest caffeine. Your body breaks down caffeine slowly. As with other drugs, caffeine has a half-life in the body. The half-life of caffeine in a typical nonsmoking adult is 5.5 h. Caffeine Content (mg) 250 mL...
