A country's population in 1993 was 171 million estimate the population in 2012 using the exponential growth formula round your answer to the nearest million?
you need to know the percentage of growth per year in order to be able to answer this question, because the final number depends on that percentage
but for example, let's say it is 5%
2012 - 1993 = 19 years
therefore, the formula would be (in millions)
171 * (1.05^19) = 432.1084834 or 432,108.483 (you can't have 4/10 of a person)
To estimate the population in 2012 using the exponential growth formula, we need to know the growth rate and the number of years between the two years.
The exponential growth formula is:
P = P0 * (1 + r)^n
Where:
P = Final population
P0 = Initial population
r = Growth rate
n = Number of years
In this case:
P0 = 171 million (population in 1993)
n = 2012 - 1993 = 19 years (number of years between 1993 and 2012)
To estimate the growth rate, we need additional information. If you provide the growth rate, we can calculate the estimated population in 2012.
Please provide the growth rate, and I will calculate the estimated population.
