Answer:

[tex]P(t)=45,121,040(1.03)^t[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of a exponential growth function is equal to

[tex]P(t)=a(1+r)^t[/tex]

where

P(t) is the population

t is the number of years since 2014

a is the initial population in 2014

r is the rate of change

In this problem we have

[tex]a=45,121,040\\r=3\%=3/100=0.03[/tex]

substitute

[tex]P(t)=45,121,040(1+0.03)^t[/tex]

[tex]P(t)=45,121,040(1.03)^t[/tex]
