Question

The population p, in millions, of a certain country can be calculated by p=0.83t54, where t is the time in years, and t = 0 represents the year 2015. find the expected population of this country in 2096. round your answer to the nearest whole million.

Answer 1

P(t) = (0.83)t^(5/4) 
2096 - 2015 = 81 
81 ^ (5/4) = 243 
243 × 0.83 = 201.69 

Population in 2096 expected to be 202 million.
