Answer:

335,979 people (in Year 2020)

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial Population (Year 2010) = 250,000

Rate of Growth = 3% = 3/100 = 0.03

We want the population of the town in Year 2020 (at this rate). That is 10 years from now.

The formula for compound growth is:

F=P(1+r)^t

Where

F is the future value (in year 2020)

P is the present value (250,000)

r is the rate of increase per year (0.03)

t is the time in years (t = 10)

Lets substitute and find the value:

F=P(1+r)^t\\F=250,000(1+0.03)^{10}\\F=250,000(1.03)^{10}\\F=335979.09

Rounded, that would be:

335,979 people (in Year 2020)

4/(4 + 10) = 5/(5+X) Cross Multiply

4(5+x) = 5(4+10)m

20 +4x=20 +50 subtract 20 from both sides

Len [333]

Answer:

F = $11,421.90

Final value after 5 years F = $11,421.90

Complete question;

You purchased a vehicle for $32,000. It's value will depreciate at a rate of 18.62%. What will it's value be in 5 years, when you finally have it paid off

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Initial value P = $32,000

Depreciation rate r = 18.62% = 0.1862

Time t = 5

Final value = F

Using the compound depreciation formula;

F = P(1 - r)^t

Substituting the values;

F = $32,000(1 - 0.1862)^5

F = $11,421.90

Final value F = $11,421.90
