Question

The population of a certain geographic region is approximately 127 million and grows continuously at a relative growth rate of 1.69%. What will the population be in 5 years? Compute the answer to three significant digits.

Answer 1

P = P_o(1+r)^t

 

P = 127(1+.0169)⁵

 

P ≈ 138 million

Answer 2

127 million * (1 + .0169)^5 = 138,100,407 million
