Answer:
The number of follower after x years is 40,000[tex](1.025)^{x}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given as :
The number of current followers = p = 40,000
The rate of growth of follower = r = 2.5%
The time period of growth = t = x years
Let The number of follower after x years = A
Now, According to question
The number of follower after x years = number of current followers × [tex](1+\dfrac{\textrm rate}{100})^{\textrm time}[/tex]
Or, A = p × [tex](1+\dfrac{\textrm r}{100})^{\textrm t}[/tex]
Or, A = 40,000 × [tex](1+\dfrac{\textrm 2.5}{100})^{\textrm x}[/tex]
Or, A = 40,000 × [tex](1.025)^{x}[/tex]
So, The number of follower after x years = A = 40,000 × [tex](1.025)^{x}[/tex]
Hence, The number of follower after x years is 40,000[tex](1.025)^{x}[/tex] Answer
