Question

The population for a city is 39194 and grows continuously at the rate of 6.9% each year. What is the approximate population in 17 years?

Answer 1

39194 x (1.069)17 = 121,854.
Thus the population for the city in 17 years is approxiamately 121,854 people

Answer 2

Answer:

121,854

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial population of the town A= 39194

rate growth of population R= 6.9%= 0.069

we need to find the population after n = 17 years

we can find that easily using growth rate formula

A= P(1+R/100)^n

A= 39194(1+0.069)^17

= 121,854

therefore population at the end of 17 years= 121,854
