Answer:

916 billion

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the formula

y = ab^x

a is the initial value and b is growth rate

b = 1+7% = 1.07

y = 380 (1.07) ^x

x - the number of years from 2005 to 2018

2018 -2005 = 13 years

y = 380 (1.07)^13

    915.7411000714707691164644866   billion

Rounding

    916 billion
