A small fishing town in California has been losing population since 1999. In 1999 the population was 11000 but it has been decreasing by about 9% per year.

Write an exponential formula of the form P(t)=a⋅bt\displaystyle {P}{\left({t}\right)}={a}\cdot{b}^{{t}} that models the population t\displaystyle {t} years since 1999.
P(t)=\displaystyle {P}{\left({t}\right)}=  

If this trend continues, predict the population in 2024. Round your answer to the nearest integer.
