Answer:
5000
Explanation:
The relationship between population and a yearly growth rate rate is given by:
P(t) = Pi*(1+R)^t
where Pi is the initial population, P(t) is the population at year t, where t=0 for the initial year.
In this case, P(1) = 5400, R is 0.08 (8%), and t = 1.
5400 = Pi*(1+0.08)^1
pi = (5400)/(1.08)
pi = 5000
