Answer:

  2,856,271

Step-by-step explanation:

We presume your equation is intended to be ...

  P = 1,030,000(1.12)^t

To find the prediction in 9 years, put 9 where t is and do the arithmetic.

  P = 1030000(1.12^9) ≈ 2,856,271

In 9 years, the population is predicted to be about 2,856,271.

Answer:

To predict the population in nine years, substitute 9 for t in the equation and simplify:

P = 1,030,000(1.12)9

  = 1,030,000 ∙ 2.77

  = 2,853,100.
