The population of the group in 2019 is 2,134,000 people

Let P represent the population in thousands of people in the year t after 2011

Given the equation:

[tex]P=1200(2)^{0.1038t}[/tex]

a) The population of the group in 2019, that is t = 8(2019 - 2011):

[tex]P=1200(2)^{0.1038*8}=2134[/tex]

b) The population of the group in 2029, that is t = 18(2029 - 2011):

[tex]P=1200(2)^{0.1038*18}=4382[/tex]

The population of the group in 2019 is 2,134,000 people
