Question

In the example we modeled the world population in the second half of the 20th century by the equation P(t) = 2560e^(0.017185t). Use this equation to estimate the average world population during the time period of 1950 to 2000. (Round your answer to the nearest million.)

Answer 1

Answer: There are 6045 millions world population during the period of 1950 to 2000.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

The world population in the second half of the 20 the century by the equation:

`P(t)=2560e^(0.017185t)`

We need to find the average world population during the period of 1950 to 2000.

So, there are 50 years between 1950 to 2000.

So, t = 50 years.

Therefore, the average population would be

`P(50)=2560e^(0.017185* 50)\\\\P(50)=6045.15\\\\P(50)\approx 6045\ millions`

Hence, there are 6045 millions world population during the period of 1950 to 2000.
