Answer: 8074764
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Using the exponential growth function :
F = a(1 + r) ^x
Where a = initial amount = 3 million ; r = rate = 0.02 ; time = x = 50 years ; F = final amount
F = 3(1 + 0.02)^50
F = 3(1.02)^50
F = 8074764.0872
Hence average population over the next 50 years will be ; 8074764
