Answer 1

Answer:

214

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of trucks registered in a city increases by 10% each year.

Rate = 10% =0.1

Initial Amount of trucks = 100

Time = 8 years

We are supposed to find  the number of trucks registered in the city at the end of year 8

Formula : $y=a(1+b)^t$

where y in the amount after t years

a is the initial amount

b is the rate of increase in decimals

Substitute the values

$y=100(1+0.1)^8$

$y=214.358$

So, the number of trucks registered in the city at the end of year 8 is 214.
