A population of aardvarks is growing at a rate of 2% per year, there are 714 aardvarks this year and 700 aardvarks were there last year.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.

Let y represent the amount of aardvarks after x years.

It can be represented by the equation:

y = a(1.02)ˣ

If this year there are 714 aardvarks, the amount in the last year is:

714 = a(1.02¹)

a = 700

A population of aardvarks is growing at a rate of 2% per year, there are 714 aardvarks this year and 700 aardvarks were there last year.
