A population of 140,000 grows 4% per year for 15 years.

How much will the population be after 15 years

252132

Step-by-step explanation:

we can make use of the compound interest formula

this is because the population increases each year

formula:

A = P ( 1 + r/100)^n

where :

A is the amount

P is the principle

r is the rate of interest

n is the number of years

A = 140 000 * ( 1 + 4/100 ) ^ 15

   = 252132.0908

to the nearest whole number is 252132
