Answer:

f(x) = 40(1 + 0.13)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

The general formula for an exponential growth function is;

f(x) = a(1 + r)^x

Where;

a= initial population of the city

r= population growth rate

x = number of years

Given that;

a= 40,000

r= 0.13

The population of the city in thousands of people in terms of x is;

f(x) = 40(1 + 0.13)^x
