Can someone help me with this? During a certain period of time about 2000 penguins had an annual growth rate of 19% why will the population of penguins be after 5 years? This is exponential growth and decay

Answer:

Future amount of penguin = 4,772.70

Explanation:

Given:

Current amount of penguin = 2,000

Growth rate r = 19% = 0.19

Number of year n = 5

Find:

Future amount of penguin

Computation:

Future amount of penguin = Current amount of penguin[1+r]ⁿ

Future amount of penguin = 2000[1+0.19]⁵

Future amount of penguin = 4,772.70
