A city has a population of 120,000 people. Suppose the population grows by 4% each year. What will the population be after 10 years? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Respuesta :

MrRoyal

The population of the city in ten years is 177629

How to determine the population?

The given parameters are:

Initial, a = 120000

Rate, r = 4%

The function is represented using:

P(t) = a * (1 + r)^t

This gives

P(t) = 120000 * (1 + 4%)^t

At ten years, t = 10.

So, we have:

P(10) = 120000 * (1 + 4%)^10

Evaluate

P(10) = 177629

Hence, the population in ten years is 177629
