Would you do a look up for me?
Q. 2nd post: If you have an account at Ancestry.com, would you look up the 1900 United States Federal Census for Sherman Bishop and spouse Rachel Bishop. I saw it listed there.

A. Well, I can locate only one couple of Sherman and Rachel Bishop and they weren't living in either North or South Carolina at the time of the 1900 census. Nor according to what they supplied to the census, were they born in either North or South Carolina. They were living at 149 Temple Street in Washington Court House City, Fayette County, Ohio. Both listed that they had been born in Ohio and that both of their parents had also been born in Ohio. In 1900 Sherman was 34 and Rachel 29. They listed their marriage as 1888. They had had 5 children, three of whom were still living. Ethel age 7, Ruth age 3 and Paul 2 months old at the time of the census. Sherman listed his profession as an Oil Dealer. I don't know if this is the same… [cont.]

A. don't see why this is a calc problem Oo. Exponential model is A = Pe^(rt) P is how much you start with. A is howmuch you end up with. and t is the amount of time passed. So from 1900 to 1910, the amount of time passed is 10 years, and 76 is how much you start with (P) 92 is how much you end with (A) so you have 92 = 76*e^(r*10) Solve this for r. (I'm too lazy.) and then replace that value of r into your equation. Now you have the power to predict what the population will be in 2000. Just use the started population in 1910 as you (A) and leave P as your variable. Use t = 90, (90 years from 1910 to 2000) and the rate you found in the first problem. The only variable you should have left is P, which is your prediction… [cont.]
