Answer:
A. 142,410
Step-by-step explanation:
For this purpose we have to find the pattern in previously given information
The given information is:
23000, 27600, 33120, 39744
The given sequence can be assumed as a geometric sequence
The common ratio is:
r = 27600/23000
r = 1.2
Hence the next term is obtained by multiplying with 1.2
So,
Population in:
2018 = 39744*1.2 = 47692.8
2019 = 47692.8 * 1.2 =57231.36
2020 = 57231.36*1.2 =68677.632
2021 =68677.632 * 1.2 = 82413.1584
2022= 82413.1584 * 1.2 =98895.79
2023= 98895.79 * 1.2 = 118674.948
2024 = 118674.948*1.2 = 142409.9376
Since the number of person/ population should be a whole number so,
The population in 2024 will be 142410
So, Option A is correct ..
