This is linear growth
\n" ); document.write( "The equation is $\"+P+=+648t+%2B+1400+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "where $\"+P+\"$ is the current population
\n" ); document.write( "and $\"+t+\"$ is the number of yrs from today
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+P+=+648%2A3+%2B+1400+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+P+=+3344+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "3,344 population in 3 yrs\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
