Answer:

22662

Step-by-step explanation:

14000(1+3.5/100)^14

The population after 14 years is 22662.

It is given that,

  • The initial population of the town is 14000.
  • The growth rate is 3.5%.
  • The time is 14 years.

Explanation:

The exponential growth model is:

[tex]P=P_0\left(1+r\right)^t[/tex]

Where, [tex]P[/tex] is population after [tex]t[/tex] years, [tex]P_0[/tex] is the initial population and [tex]r[/tex] is the growth rate.

Substituting [tex]P_0=14000,r=0.035,t=14[/tex] in the above equation.

[tex]P=14000\left(1+0.035\right)^{14}[/tex]

[tex]P=14000\left(1.035\right)^{14}[/tex]

[tex]P=22661.7233[/tex]

[tex]P\approx 22662[/tex]

Thus, the population after 14 years is 22662.
