Answer:
population after 13 years is around 23,039
Step-by-step explanation:
A town has a population of 13000 and grows at 4.5% every year.
Population growth is given by [tex]y=a(1+r)^t[/tex]
y is the population after t years
'a' is the initial population= 13000
'r' is the rate of growth=4.5%= 0.045
t is the number of years=13
[tex]y=a(1+r)^t[/tex]
[tex]y=13000(1+0.045)^13[/tex]
y=23,038.54
