question 9

Multiple Choice

Solve the problem.
-An accountant tabulated a firm's profits for four recent years in the following table:
 Year  Profits 1996$250,0001997$300,0001998$400,0001999$600,000\begin{array} { l | l } \text { Year } & \text { Profits } \\\hline 1996 & \$ 250,000 \\1997 & \$ 300,000 \\1998 & \$ 400,000 \\1999 & \$ 600,000\end{array}

The accountant then fit both a linear graph and an exponential curve (seen below) to the data, in order to estimat profits. Use the exponential graph to estimate the profits in the year 2002.2002 .
