I will give the brainiest The population of a town is 12,000, and it grows at a rate of 5% per year. What will the
population be in 4 years?

What was the population 4 years ago?

about 56,401; about 6,290
about 14,586; about 9,872
about 12,600:about 11,400
about 14.420; about 10.104

After 4 years the population of the town will be 14,586.1

Step-by-step explanation:

12,000 x 5%= 600 > 600 + 12,000 = 12,600 1 years = 12,600

12,000 x .05 = 600 ^

12,600 x 5% = 630 > 630 + 12,600 = 13,230 2 years = 13,230

12,600 x .05 = 630 ^

13,230 x 5% = 661.5 > 661.5 + 13,230 = 13,891.5 3 years = 13,891.5

13,230 x .05 = 661.5 ^

13,891.5 x 5% = 694.6 > 694.6 + 13,891.5 = 14,586.1 4 years = 14,586.1

13,891.5 x .05 = 694.6 ^

About 56,401; about 6,290
