find an exponential function of the form P(t)yoe^kt to model the given;

In 1995, the number of female athletes participating in Summer Olympics-Type Games was 550. In 1996, about 3550 participated in the summer olympics in ATlanta. Assuming that P(0)= 500 and that the exponential model applied, find the value of k rounded to the hundredths place, and write the function
