Answer: 121871
Step-by-step explanation:
Current population = 98000
Rate of increase = 3.7% / year
Total time = 2020 - 2014 = 6 years
Population in 2020 = 98000 * (1+ (3.7/100))^6
= 98000 * (1.037)^6 = 98000 * 1.243576 = 121870.505
Rounding off to nearest whole number we get the population = 121871
We are given table
Month : 1 2 3 4 5
Shoppers: 50 250 1250 6250 3250
so, we have
first term =50

Second term =250

Third term =1250



now, we can find ratios

we can see that all ratios are same and 5
so, this is exponential
so, option-D..........Answer
