Answer: The population would be 6580 after 7 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

The growth rate is exponential. We would apply the formula for exponential growth which is expressed as

y = b(1 + r)^ t

Where

y represents the population after t years.

t represents the number of years.

b represents the initial population.

r represents rate of growth.

From the information given,

b = 5000

r = 4% = 4/100 = 0.04

t = 7 years

Therefore

y = 5000(1 + 0.04)^7

y = 5000(1.04)^7

y = 6580
