Question

the population of a town is 80000 if the rate of growth of population of a town is 4 per year estimate the population of the town at the end of two years​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

I’m a bit confused, but if the question means ‘4 percent per year increase’ then I would multiply 80000 with 0.04 which gives you 3200, and then add it with 80000 which gives you 83200. After that I would multiply the answer with 0.04 again since the question asked for the town population after two years. That gives you 3344, add 3344 with 83200 and that gives you 86528.

The answer is 86528

80000 x 0.04= 3200

3200 + 80000= 83200

83200 x 0.04= 3328

3328 + 83200= 86528
