Suppose the population of a town is 2,700 and is growing 4% each year. Write an equation to model the population growth. Predict the population after 12 years.

A.) y= 2,700*4^x about 45,298,483,200 people
B.) y= 2,700*1.04^x; about 4,323 people
C.) y= 2,700*4^x ;about 4,323 people
D.) y= 4*2,700^x ; about 129,600 people

Respuesta :

Here, You rate of growing = 4%

So, Population after a while would be: 2700(1 + 4%)^number of years
= 2700(1+ 0.04)^x
= 2700(1.04)^x

After 12 years, it would be: 
= 2700(1.04)^12
= 2700(1.60)
= 4323 

In short, Your Answer would be Option B

Hope this helps!
