Question

What is the world’s predicted population in the year 2020, rounded to the nearest million?

Answer 1

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

P_0=5642000000 people

Growth Rate=i=1.3%

Since the years will be counted from 1994

So for 2020 population:

n=26 years

Using the formula,

P_n= P_0 e^in

Putting the values,

P_n=(5642000000)*(2.71828)^(0.013*26)

P_n=(5642000000)*1.40214

P_n= 7910874921.6228

Rounding off to nearest million

P_n= 7911000000 people
