Question

A city's population is currently 365,000. If the population doubles every 24 years, what will the population be 96 years from now?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Answer 2

5,840,000

Explanation:

Let P be the population after x years. The population after 24 years is 2P. So, we have:

P = 365,000 * 2^(x/24)

To find the population after 96 years, we plug in x = 96:

P = 365,000 * 2^(96/24) = 365,000 * 2^4 = 365,000 * 16 = 5,840,000

So, the population of the city will be 5,840,000 after 96 years.
