Use TI-83 graphical calculator, first enter the values of years in L1 and population (in thousands) in L2 in the calculator:
Consider the following table:
Then, plot the graph as below:
Use exponential regression as follow:
Now, use exponential regression to find out the exponential formula:
Hence, exponential model is \({y = 7.7997802519 \times {{1.10250888}^x}}\).
