A town has a population of 17000 and grows at 4% every year. What will be the population after 12 years, to the nearest whole number?
+1005 Well you could do it one by one...
DON'T
Write an equation.
17000 * (1.04)^12 = answer!
Why? since you have to multiply by that 12 times.
Yup put it in a calculator!
Ask if you don't understand anything!
+1005 Oh yes, i forgot to mention that for math related content don't put "off topic".
