(2)(5 points) During the years from 2005 to 2011(just before, during, and immediately after the recession years of 2007 to 2009), the number of single-family houses sold decreased at a rate that can be modeled well by an exponential function. The number of single-family houses sold (in thousands) can be approximated by the function
g(x)=1483e-0.28x
where x=0 corresponds to the year 2005. What was the first full year in which the number of houses sold fell below 500 thousand?
