Answer:

$12,92,20,575.43$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the population of Mexico has been increasing at an annual rate of 1.7%

Initial population = 100,350,000

i.e. 2000 is the year zero.

IN 2015, t = no of years from 2000 = 15

To find out population in 2015,

we find out P(15)

$P(15) =100350000(1+0.017)^{15} \\=12,92,20,575.43$
