Question

suppose the population of a town is growing exponentially. The population was 24,004 in 2008 and grew to 75,340 in 2010. What is the approximate growth rate of the population?

Answer 1

Explanation:

First thing you do is find the difference between the years recorded. So from 2008 to 2010 is two years. Second you find the difference between the populations which is 51,336 then divide it by two and you get the average growth in the population of 25,668
