An internet service provider had a total of 17,156 customers last year. They gained a net of 1,802 customers this year. They hope to reach at least 35,000 customers in ten years. Estimate the number of customers they need to reach their goal
The answer is 16,000.
They are looking for an estimate and not an exact number.
wrong
i just need to know the estimated number they need to reach their goal
still wrong blud
Apologies for the confusion. Let's try to calculate this again.
Currently, the internet service provider has 17,156 customers. They hope to reach at least 35,000 customers in ten years.
To estimate the number of customers they need to reach their goal, we need to calculate the total number of customers they need to gain in ten years.
The net gain in customers this year was 1,802. To estimate the future growth, we can assume a constant yearly growth rate.
So, the total number of customers they need to gain in ten years is: 35,000 - 17,156 = 17,844.
Therefore, the internet service provider needs to gain approximately 17,844 customers to reach their goal of 35,000 customers in ten years.

Apologies for the previous incorrect responses. Let me calculate the estimated number of customers the internet service provider needs to reach their goal correctly this time.
Last year, the internet service provider had 17,156 customers. Over the past year, they gained a net of 1,802 customers. Their goal is to reach at least 35,000 customers in ten years.
To estimate the number of customers they need to reach their goal, we first need to calculate the total gain in customers over the ten years.
The net gain in customers this year was 1,802. Since there are ten years in total, the total gain in customers over the ten years would be 1,802 * 10 = 18,020 customers.
Adding the total gain in customers over the ten years to the customers they had last year, we get: 17,156 + 18,020 = 35,176.
Therefore, the internet service provider needs to have approximately 35,176 customers to reach their goal of 35,000 customers in ten years.

Apologies for the ongoing confusion. Let's attempt to calculate the estimated number of customers the internet service provider needs to reach their goal accurately this time.
Last year, the internet service provider had 17,156 customers. They gained a net of 1,802 customers this year. Their goal is to reach at least 35,000 customers in ten years.
To estimate the number of customers they need to reach their goal, we need to consider the net gain in customers per year.
Over the past year, they gained a net of 1,802 customers. Therefore, the net gain per year is 1,802 / 1 = 1,802 customers.
To determine the number of customers they need to reach their goal in ten years, we can calculate the total net gain over ten years: 1,802 * 10 = 18,020 customers.
Adding the total net gain to the number of customers they had last year, we get: 17,156 + 18,020 = 35,176 customers.
Therefore, the internet service provider needs to have approximately 35,176 customers to reach their goal of 35,000 customers in ten years.
My sincere apologies for any previous misunderstandings or inaccuracies.
thxx the answer is 16000
To estimate the number of customers the internet service provider needs to reach their goal in ten years, we need to consider the total gain in customers over the years.
The net gain in customers this year was 1,802, which brings the total number of customers to 17,156 + 1,802 = <<17156+1802=18958>>18,958.
To estimate the future growth, we can calculate the average yearly growth rate by dividing the net gain by the number of years: (1,802 / 1) = 1,802.
Assuming a consistent growth rate, the average yearly growth rate is (1,802 / 1) = 1,802 customers per year.
To estimate the number of customers they will have in ten years, we can multiply the average yearly growth rate by the number of years: 1,802 * 10 = <<1802*10=18020>>18,020 additional customers.
Adding the additional customers to the current number of customers, we get 18,958 + 18,020 = <<18958+18020=36978>>36,978 customers in ten years.
Therefore, the internet service provider needs to gain approximately 21,022 customers to reach their goal of 35,000 customers in ten years.
Apologies for the mistake. Let me correct it.
To estimate the number of customers the internet service provider needs to reach their goal in ten years, we will assume a constant yearly growth rate.
To calculate the growth rate, we subtract the total number of customers last year from the goal: 35,000 - 17,156 = 17,844 customers.
Then we divide the required growth over ten years by the number of years: 17,844 / 10 = 1,784.4 customers per year.
Therefore, the internet service provider needs to gain approximately 1,784 customers per year to reach their goal of 35,000 customers in ten years.
Apologies for the confusion. To estimate the number of customers the internet service provider needs to reach their goal of 35,000 customers in ten years, we need to consider the current number of customers and the net gain in customers per year.
Currently, the internet service provider has 17,156 customers. Over the next ten years, they hope to reach 35,000 customers.
To estimate the number of customers they need to reach their goal, we can subtract the current number of customers from the target number of customers: 35,000 - 17,156 = <<35000-17156=17844>>17,844.
Therefore, the internet service provider needs to gain approximately 17,844 customers to reach their goal of 35,000 customers in ten years.
