Question

5) In 1840, the population in Nevada was 8,000. Between 1840 and 1860,

the population grew exponentially, increasing by about 90% each decade.

Answer 1

1840-1860= 20 years

8,000/20= 400

400/10=40

1 year = 40 people

40* 90%= 36 more people

meaning 76 people in 1 year

this is all guessing sorry if this is wrong
