    j (t) = 600*1.09ᵗ⁻¹

    Step-by-step explanation:

    In 2014, there were 600 jobs.

    The next year, the number is expected to grow by 9%.

    Since the growth rate is a percentage, this is an example of a geometric sequence.

    The nth term of a Geometric Progression is given as:

    Uₙ=arⁿ⁻¹

    In the first year, population = 600

    r = (100+9) %=1.09

    Therefore the function j (t) that gives the expected number of jobs from the year 2014 is given as:

    Uₙ=arⁿ⁻¹

    j (t) = 600*1.09ᵗ⁻¹ where t=1,2,3 ...

    The value of t=1 is for the year 2014.
