The population of Chile was approximately 16.9 million in the year 2011, with an annual growth rate of 0.836%. The population P ( t ) (in millions) can be modeled by P ( t ) = 16.9 ( 11.00836 ) t , where t is the number of years since 2011. a. Write a function of the form P ( t ) = P 0 e k t to model the population. b. Determine the amount of time required for tile population to grow to 20 million if this trend continues. Round to the nearest year.

Solve the linear system of equations attached using Gaussian elimination (not Gauss-Jordan) and back subsitution.
Remember that:
A matrix is in row echelon form if
Any row that consists only of zeros is at the bottom of the matrix.
The first non-zero entry in each other row is 1. This entry is called aleading 1.
The leading 1 of each row, after the first row, lies to the right of the leading 1 of the previous row.
