The population of a town grows at the rate of 3 percent each year in 2010, the town had a population of 25. what is the population in 2020

335,979 people (in Year 2020)

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial Population (Year 2010) = 250,000

Rate of Growth = 3% = 3/100 = 0.03

We want the population of the town in Year 2020 (at this rate). That is 10 years from now.

The formula for compound growth is:

Where

F is the future value (in year 2020)

P is the present value (250,000)

r is the rate of increase per year (0.03)

t is the time in years (t = 10)

Lets substitute and find the value:

Rounded, that would be:

335,979 people (in Year 2020)

c. 4 and 1/2 pounds is the answer! : )

for the first question it would be the second answer for the second question it would be the third answer and for the third question it would be the first answer
