Question

In the last 10 years, the population of Indonesia has grown at a rate of 1.12% per year to 258,316,051. If this rate continues, what will be the population in 10 more years? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answer 1

The population of Indonesia, which has been growing at a rate of 1.12% per year for the last 10 years, will be approximately 286,329,095 in 10 more years.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the population in 10 more years, we need to calculate the population growth over that period. The population of Indonesia has been growing at a rate of 1.12% per year for the last 10 years. We can use this growth rate to calculate the population in the future.

First, we need to find the growth factor. The growth factor is calculated by adding 1 to the growth rate expressed as a decimal. In this case, the growth factor is 1 + 0.0112 = 1.0112.

Next, we can use the growth factor to calculate the future population. We multiply the current population by the growth factor raised to the power of the number of years. So, in 10 more years, the population of Indonesia will be 258,316,051 * (1.0112)^10 = 286,329,095.

Rounding to the nearest whole number, the population in 10 more years will be approximately 286,329,095.

Answer 2

Final population after 10 years

= 288911718

Step-by-step explanation:

Present population p = 258,316,051

Rate of growth R%= 1.12%

Number of years t= 10 years

Number of times calculated n = 10

Final population A

= P(1+r/n)^(nt)

A= 258,316,051(1+0.0112/10)^(10*10)

A= 258,316,051(1+0.00112)^(100)

A= 258,316,051(1.00112)^100

A= 258,316,051(1.118442762)

A= 288911717.6

Approximately A= 288911718

Final population after 10 years

= 288911718
