The population of a country was 5.1 million people in 2000. Three years later, the population of the same nation was 8.2 million
people. Assuming that population is growing exponentially, what is the projected population (rounded to one-tenth of a million) of the country in 2008?
First you will divide 100 by 50 you get 2. then you subrtact 38 from 50. you get 12. then since 100 is twice the amount as 50, you will multiply 12 by 2. you get 24. that is your answer
