Acountries population in 1991 was 147 million. in 1998 it was 153 million. estimate the population in 2017 using the exponential growth formula round your answer to the nearest million. p=ae^kt

The population in 2017  is 171 million

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume population starts from 1991

so,

initial population is 147 million

so,

we can use formula

we can plug A=147

In 1998:

t=1998-1991=7

now, we can plug these values into formula and find k

Divide both sides by 147

now, we can plug it back

and we get

In 2017:

t=2017-1991=26

we can plug it and find P

So,

The population in 2017  is 171 million

7
