Answer: the population will be
395925972
Step-by-step explanation:
The growth rate is exponential. We would apply the formula for exponential growth which is expressed as
A = P(1 + r)^ t
Where
A represents the population after t years.
t represents the number of years.
P represents the initial population.
r represents rate of growth.
From the information given,
P = 100000000
r = 3.5% = 3.5/100 = 0.035,
t = 40 years
Therefore
A = 100000000(1 + 0.035)^40
A = 100000000(1.035)^40
A = 395925972
