the population of Smithfield is growing at the rate of 6% per year. There are currently 2500 people in the town. Write an equation that models the population.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The equation that models the population is The number of people in Town after n years = 2500 × [tex]( 1 +\frac{6}{100})^{n}[/tex]    

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The Rate of growth of population per year = 6%

The Present number of people in town = 2500

so ,

The number of people in Town after n years = The present number of people in Town × [tex]( 1 +\frac{Rate}{100})^{number of year}[/tex]

Or, The number of people in Town after T years = 2500 × [tex]( 1 +\frac{6}{100})^{n}[/tex]

where n is the number of year

Hence The equation that models the population is The number of people in Town after n years = 2500 × [tex]( 1 +\frac{6}{100})^{n}[/tex]       Answer
