Question

A country's population 1994 was 52 million. In 2000 it was 55 million. Estimate the population in 2003 using the exponential growth formula. Round your answer to the nearest million

Answer 1

Answer:

Popul@1994 = 52,000,000

P@2000 = 55,000,000

P@2003 = ?

r = ?

Equation: P = Po * e^(rt)

-----

Solve r:

P/Po = e^(rt)

ln(P/Po) = rt

r = ln(P/Po)/t

r = ln(P@2000/P@1994)/(2000-1994)

r = ln(55M/52M)/6

r = 0.009348

----

Solve for P@2003

t = 2003 - 1994 = 9

P@2003 = P@1994 * e^(rt)

P@2003 = 52M * e^(0.009348*9)

P@2003 = 56,564,292.9

approximately 57M.
