Answer:

Option c

Step-by-step explanation:

The study is an observational study. An observational study is made when the researchers collect data based on what they see, hear or observe without any form of manipulation or treatment plan from the researchers. Thus, in this case, the study is an observational study because the study examines individuals in a sample, but does not try to influence the response variable/influence their responses.

The population of a town increases by 4 % every year . In the last year the population of the town was 110000.

Answer:

114,400 and 118,976.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's represent this using a function. Let's let:

$P(y)$ represent the total population, and $y$ represent the total number of years since last year.

We know that the population grows by 4% every year or 0.04 every year. This is exponential growth. We can write this as:

$P(y)=110000(1.04)^y$

Note that the coefficient is 110000 because that is the year we are starting with. Also, note that it is 1.04 because we are essentially adding .04 to the original population.

Anyways, to find the present population, set y equal to 1 (because 1 year after last year is the present year)

$P(1)=110000(1.04)^1=114400$
