Answer:

If the population grows by 4% each year then

the population in any given year is 104% of

the previous year or 1.04 times as much

P(t) = P0(1.04)t

P(t) is population at time t years

P0 = initial population = 11,000

t = number of years = 15

P(15) = 11,000(1.04)15

P(15) = 19,810 people
