Question:

Use the model in Exercise 35 to determine the year in which the number of continuously serving members was 338.


Exercise 35

The turnover of legislators  is a problem of interest to political scientists. It was found that one model of legislative turnover in a particular body was M(t) = 434e-0.08t, where M(t) represents the number of continuously serving members at time t. Here,  t = 0 represents 1965, t = 1 represents 1966, and so on. Use this model to approximate the number of continuously serving members in each year.
