Question 102456: The population of Windham is growing at an annual rate of 0.5%. If the current population is 12,520, one function that can be used to predict the future population of Windham is P(t) = 12,520(1.005)^t where t represent time in years. Use this function to predict the population of Windham in 10 years.

P(t) = 12,520(1.005)t where t represent time in years. Use this function to predict the population of Windham in 10 years.
------------
P(10) = 12520(1.005)^10
P(10) = $13160.274
