Question 80577: In 1984, the population of the world was about 4.8 billion and the yearly growth rate was 2%. The equation giving the population P in terms of the time t (in years) is P = 4.8e0.02t. Estimate the population in 2007. (If 1984 is t = 0, then 2007 is t = 23.) When will the population be 10 billion? How many years will it take for the population to double?
Answer: The population in 2007 will be billion. The populaton will be 10 billion in the year . (Round the year off.) It will take years for the population to double. (Round up to the nearest whole number for years.)
