Complete the following table Round doubling time to the near
Complete the following table. (Round doubling time to the nearest whole number and round growth rate to the nearest tenth.)
Solution
N(t) = No*e^(r*t)
country A:
r = 2.1% = 0.021
N(t) = No*e^(r*t)
2No= No*e^(0.021*t)
e^(0.021*t) = 2
0.021*t = 0.693
t = 33 years
Answer: 33 years
country B:
N(t) = No*e^(r*t)
2No= No*e^(r*32)
e^(r*32) = 2
r*32= 0.693
r = 0.022 years
Answer: 2.2 %
