Answer:
2,340,208.5 or 2,340,209
Step-by-step explanation:
You could answer this by multiplying the current population of 800,000 by 1.05 (1.05 represents the annual growth rate of population) and do that 22 times. But that would take a while.
we got 1.05 because the formula says that y = a( 1 + r ) power t
for a we will give it 1
so y = 1 ( 1 + 0.05) power t
it will give us 1.05
to do this faster, you would first calculate (1.05)22and then multiply this by 800,000.
So, 800,000 x (1.05)22 = 2,340,208.5 or 2,340,209
$22x5% = $1.10 or 22x.05= 1.1
$22.00 + $1.10 = $23.10
You would solve this with multiplication. If each desk costs $24 and they bought 32 desks then to find out to total cost of all the desks you would multiply 24x32
