Respuesta :

Answer:

4284 persons

Explanation:

The new population of the town will be computed as:

Increase in population = Current population × Increase in population %

where

Current population is 4200 persons

Increase in population % is 2%

Putting the values above:

= 4200 persons × 2%

= 84 persons

So, the new population would be:

New population = Current population + Increase in population

= 4200 + 84 persons

= 4284 persons

Therefore, next year, there would be 4284 persons
