Question

25 POINTS!!!!

A city's population is currently 135,000. If the population doubles every 26 years, what will the population be 78 years from now?

Answer 1

1,080,000

Explanation:

==> First divide 78 by 26

==> answer = 3

==> 135,000×2 = 270,000

==> 270,000 × 2 = 540,000

==> 540,000 × 2 = 1,080,000

==> 1,080,000

Answer 2

78/26=3 so the population will double 3 times.
135,000 x 2 = 270,000
270,000 x 2 = 540,000
540,000 x 2 = 1,080,000
So by 78 years the population will become 1,080,000
