Question

A Country's population in 1993 was 107 million. In 1999 it was 112 million. Estimate the population in 2017 using the exponential growth formula. Round your answer to the nearest million.

Answer 1

from 1993 till 1999 is 6 years
so from 107 million till 112 million is 5 million

so this mean that in 6 years the population numbers growth by 5 million

from 1999 till 2017 is 18 years

so than in 6 years was the growth 5 million so than
in 18 years will be x million
------------------------------------------

x = 18*5/6 = 3*5 = 15

so this mean that the population numbers in 18 years will growth by 15 million

than result that in 2017 will be 112 +15 = 127 so will be 127 million
