The population of Canada in 1999 was 31,006,000. If the
population grows at 1.2% per year, determine approximately
how many years (from 1999) it will take the population to
reach 40,000,000.

Respuesta :

It takes only 2 years

because

31,006,000 x 1.2% = 6,201,200

so,

31, 006, 000 + 6,201,200 = 37, 207, 200

37, 207, 200 + 6,201,200 = 43, 408, 400
