<PRE><B>Question 609363</B>
At a certain school, the number of children entering kindergarten increased by 6.7% annually for 5 years then decreased by 4.2% annually in the next 5 years. If 110 children enrolled in kindergarten at the beginning of this period, how many were enrolled after 10 years?
---
Start: 110
after 5 years: 110(1.067)^5
---
After another 5 years: 110*(1.067)^5*(0.958)^5 = 122.75
