Answer:
21960 people
Step-by-step explanation:
so first you find 2 percent of 18000 which is 360, then you multiply that by 11 because thats the amount of years and when you do that you get 3960
when you add the population grwoth over 11 years plus the current population you get 21960
Answer:
~22381
Step-by-step explanation:
a=starting value = 18000
r=rate = 2%=0.02
Exponential Growth:
b=1+r=1+0.02=1.02
b=1+r=1+0.02=1.02
Write Exponential Function:
y=18000(1.02)^x
y=18000(1.02)
x
Put it all together
\text{Plug in time for x:}
Plug in time for x:
y=18000(1.02)^{11}
y=18000(1.02)
11
Evauate:
y= 22380.73755
y=22380.73755
Round:
y\approx 22381
y≈22381
