Total personal income of the country (in billions of dollars) for selected years from 1959 to 2004 is given in the table. (a) These data can be modeled by an exponential function. Write the equation of this function, with x as the number of years after 1959. (b) If this model is accurate, what will be the country's total personal income in 2009? (c) In what year does the model predict the total personal income will reach $22 trillion? CELLS (b) The country's total personal income in 2009 will be $ billion.
