India is the second most populous country in the world, with a population in 2008 of about 1.14 billion people. The population is growing by about 1.34% each year. If the population continues following this trend, during what year will the population reach 2 billion?

India's population will reach 2 billion during the year of 2050.

Step-by-step explanation:

India's population in t years after 2008 is modeled by the following equation:

In which P(0) is the population in 2008 and r is the growth rate, as a decimal.

Population in 2008 of about 1.14 billion people. The population is growing by about 1.34% each year.

This means that . So

If the population continues following this trend, during what year will the population reach 2 billion?

t years after 2008.

t is found when P(t) = 2. So

2008 + 42 = 2050

India's population will reach 2 billion during the year of 2050.
