In 2010 the town of Applewood had an estimated population of 22,000 people, and its annual growth rate was estimated to be 1.8%.

The population of Applewood is equal to the function P(n), where P(n) = 22,000(1.018)n, and n is the number of years since 2010.

To better understand the future needs of the town, the town council has graphed P(n).

Determine whether each of the following conclusions are correct conclusions about the graph of P(n). Select Yes or No for each conclusion.
Conclusion Yes No
The population of Applewood, P(n), equals 0 when n = 0.


The behavior of the left end of the graph flattens out indicating that as n approaches negative infinity the population of Applewood approaches 0.


The behavior of the right end of the graph is upward indicating that as n approaches infinity the population of Applewood approaches infinity.
