Answer:
5,339,479
Step-by-step explanation:
The populations in millions of the different countries can be represented by the equations ...
c = 5.2(1.025^t)
d = 5.2(1.001^t)
We want to find d when c = 10. Solving for t when c=10, we have ...
10 = 5.2(1.025^t)
10/5.2 = 1.025^t
log(10/5.2) = t×log(1.025)
t = log(10/5.2)/log(1.025)
Then the value of d for that value of t is ...
d = 5.2(1.001^(log(10/5.2)/log(1.025)) ≈ 5.3394789
The population of Denmark is about 5,339,479 when the population of Chad is 10 million.
_____
If we round the number of years to 26.5 before computing the population of Denmark, we get 5,339,571 -- about 92 more people. Ordinarily, one would not round intermediate results.
