Apr 04, 10:48:31 AM A town has a population of 2000 and grows at 4% every year. What will be the
population after 15 years, to the nearest whole number?

Submit Answer
attempt 1 out of 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To begin lets say year one the population is 2,000

assume this in percent we can say that 2,000=100%

at the end of this year the population will have grown by 4% meaning that

100%+4% will be the new population =104%

but we know that 100%=2,000 so what about 104%=X?

so (104*2000)/100=2,080

So year 1 the population will have grown by 80 people amounting to 2080 people.

Now do it manually year by year until we reach the 15th year. i will help you up to year 3

2nd year= (2080*104)/100=2163.2

3rd year= (2163*104)/100=2249.728

y - y1 = m(x- x1)

y - (-5) = 2/3(x -0)

y + 5 = 2/3x

y = 2/3x - 5
