Answer 2

Answer:

20 million

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The human population doubles approximately every 50 years

To Find:  If there were 2.5 million people in 1950 how many people are forecasted to populate the earth in 2100

Solution:

Equation for growth = $y=ab^x$

where a is the initial amount

y is the amount after x years

x denotes the time

A.T.Q

$y=2.5(2)^{\frac{2100-1950}{50}}$

$y=20$

So, 20 million people are forecasted to populate the earth in 2100 .
