Answer:

  4432

Step-by-step explanation:

Population growth is generally expressed as a percentage of the current population. That means the growth is exponential, and the equation describing it will be ...

  population = (initial value) × (growth factor)^t . . . . . where t is in years

where the growth factor is ...

  growth factor = 1 +(growth rate)

__

For the given initial value of 3000 and the growth rate of 5%, the equation is ...

  population = 3000(1.05^t)

When t=8, the value is ...

  population = 3000(1.05^8) ≈ 3000(1.477455) ≈4432.4

The population will be about 4432 in 8 years.

How do you find average speed with hours and minutes?

How to calculate average speed. Speed is distance divided by time. Simply put, if you drove 60 kilometer's for one hour, it would look like this: Speed = distance (60 km) / time (1 hour) = 60km/h.
