Question

HELP PLS Using the following time growth model what will the population for a city be in four years if the current population is 750,000 and the doubling time is 36 years

Answer 1

810,045

Explanation:

The population growth equation can be written using the doubling time as ...

P = p(2^(t/d)) . . . where p is the current population, d is the doubling time

Application

For the given numbers, the equation becomes ...

P = 750,000(2^(4/36)) ≈ 810,045

In 4 years, the population will be about 810,045.
