17 In a city, the number N of babies born in the t-th year after 2008 can be represented by the
following formula:
N = a - b(0.9)', where a and b are constants.
The number of babies born in 2010 was 43 480. The number of babies born in 2011 was 44 452.
(a) Find the values of a and b.
(b) Find the number of babies born in 2013.
In 2016, the government of the city will give a subsidy of $5 000 to each baby born. Will the
total amount of subsidy in 2016 exceed $200 000 000? Explain your answer.
(Give the answers correct to the nearest integer if necessary.)
17(a) In 2010, t = 2010 - 2008 = 2, and N = 43 480.
43 480 = a - b(0.9)²
In 2011, t = 2011 - 2008 = 3, and N = 44 452.
44 452 = ab(0.9)³
44 452 a 0.729b............
972 = 0.081b
Substituting b= 12 000 into (i), we have
43 480 a 0.81(12 000)
(ii) - (i):
(b) From (a), N = 53 200 12 000(0.9)¹.
In 2013, t = 2013 - 2008 = 5, and
N = 53 200 12 000(0.9)³
= 46 114, cor. to the nearest integer
The required number of babies is 46 114.
In 2016, t = 2016 - 2008 = 8, and
N = 53 200 12 000(0.9)⁹
Total amount of subsidy
= $5 000(48 034)
= $240 170 000
= 48 034, cor. to the nearest integer
$240 170 000 > $200 000 000
The total amount of subsidy will exceed $200 000 000.
