Answer:
It can be modeled with the equation but needs a starting population number to finish.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the population in a future year, use the formula:
where A is the amount, p is the starting population, r is 2% or 0.02, and t is the number of years.
Since the population is increasing it is addition. Substitute r=0.02 and t=6. Without a starting population, we cannot find the population in 6 years.
