79. The table shows population estimates for California from 2003 through 2006 from the U.S. Census Bureau. Year 2003 2004 2005 2006 Population in millions 35.48 35.89 36.13 36.46 a. Divide the population for each year by the population in the preceding year. Round to two decimal places and show that California has a population increase that is approximately geometric. b. Write the general term of the geometric sequence modeling California's population, in millions, n years after 2002. c. Use your model from part (b) to project California's population, in millions, for the year 2010. Round to two decimal places.

Sequence and Series

A sequence is defined as a collection of things. Series is defined to sum the things one by one in the sequence.  It was invented by German mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss.
