A city with a 2010 population of 109,000 has a growth control policy that limits the increase in residents to 1.2% per year. Finding their work limited by the policy, developers suggest a compromise of raising the allowed growth rate to 4.7% per year. Contrast the populations in the city in 2020, 2030, and 2007 for 1.2% annual growth and 4.7% annual growth. Use the approximate doubling formula. 1. The predicted population in 2020 if the growth rate is 1.2% per year. 2. The predicted population in 2020 if the growth rate is 4.7% per year. 3. The predicted population in 2030 if the growth rate is 1.2% per year. 4. The predicted population in 2030 if the growth rate is 4.7% per year.

A certain city had a population of 20000 in 1980 and a population of 30000 in 1990. Assume that its population will continue to grow exponentially at a constant rate. What population can its city planners expect in the year 2021? About 105437 persons About 251842 persons About 718405 persons About 358588 persons About 518400 persons
