The Houston Astros fan population is 1,450,000 and is decreasing at an annual rate of 0.99% per year .Write an exponential equation to represent this situation after x years.

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for

exponential decay which is expressed as

A = P(1 - r)^t

Where

A represents the population after t years.

t represents the number of years.

P represents the initial population.

r represents rate of growth.

From the information given,

P = 1,450,000

r = 0.99% = 0.99/100 = 0.0099

t = x years

Therefore, an exponential equation to represent this situation after x years is

A = 1450000(1 - 0.0099)^t

A = 1450000(0.9901)^t
