According to the data, what would the population be in 2010? [note: the function is p(t) = (200)(1.01223)t .

Hi, thank you for posting your question here at .

I believe the problem statement is incomplete. However, when you have the data, you could solve this problem. First, you have to know the base year. For example, if the base year is 2005, and you want to know the population in 2010, then t = 2010 - 2005 = 5 years (assuming unit for t is years). Then, substitute t = 5 to the function:

P(5) = 200(1.0122)(5)
P(5) =1012.23 

Thus, the population in 2010 would be 1012.23. Again this depends with the units specified. If P is in terms of million, then the population would be 1012 million.

The answer is 10. and if you go by pemdas you would 1. multiplication 2. division 3. addition 4. subtraction
