Suppose the population of a town is 8,200 and is growing 3% each year. Write an equation to model the population growth. Predict the population after 3 years.
No Hayley, you did not have ^3 in your answers
after 1 year it would be 8,200x1.03^1 people
after 2 year it would be 8,200x1.03^2 people
after 3 year it would be 8,200x1.03^3 people
etc
y=8,200x1.03
Have a great day!
;)
Also in this one, Hayley got the first part right:
8,200(1.03)^3=8,960 projected population after 3 years.
Did I not do it fully correctly?
