In 1971 there were 294,105 females participating in high school sports. Since then the number has increased by 8.5% per year. Estimate the number participating in 2015. Round to the nearest whole number.
Thanks
Present Population =294,105
Future Population =?
2015 - 1971 =44 years
FP =294,105 x 1.085^44
FP =294,105 x 36.216667......
FP =~10,651,503 - Projected population of female athletes in 2015.
Thank you so much
