A city has a population of 230,000 people. Suppose that each year the population grows by 9%. What will the population be after

zloy xaker [14]

<u>Answer:</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

If it grows by 9% each year, you can simply do the current population times 109%. Because its an additional 9%.

230,000*109% = 250,700

After the first year, there is a population of 250,700 people.

250,700*109% = 273,263

After the second year, there is a population of 273,263 people.

273,263*109% = 297,856.67

After the third year, there is a population of 297,856.67 people.

297,856.67*109% = 324,663.77

After the fourth year, there is a population of 324,663.77 people.

324,663.77*109% = 353,883.509

After the fifth year, there is a population of 353,883.509 people.

353,883.509*109% = 385,733.025

After the sixth year, there is a population of 385,733.025 people

Round it up to 385,733 people.
