The populations P (in thousands) of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania from 2000 through 2008 can be modeled by P = 333.68e-0.009 ", where t is the year, with t = 0 corresponding to 2000.t (a) According to the model, was the population of Pittsburgh increasing or decreasing from 2000 through 2008? The population was increasing. The population was decreasing. The population was not changing. Explain your reasoning. The population was increasing because the coefficient of the exponent is negative. The population was not changing because the absolute value of the coefficient of the exponent is less than one. The population was decreasing because the coefficient of the exponent is negative. (b) What were the populations of Pittsburgh in 2000, 2006, and 2008? (Round your answers to three decimal places.) 2000 thousand people 2006 thousand people 2008 thousand people (c) According to the model, in what year will the population of Pittsburgh be approximately 302,228?
