The population of a certain country in 1997 was 288 million people. in addition, the population of the country was growing at a rate of 0.9% per year. assuming that this growth rate continues, the model upper p (t )equals 288 (1.009 )superscript t minus 1997 represents the population p (in millions of people) in year t. according to this model, when will the population of the country reach (a) 305 million people? (b) 395 million people?

a) In the year 1998 with 3 days, 2 hours, 44 minutes and 18.1006141 seconds

b) In the year 1998 with 19 days, 18 hours, 5 minutes and 35.10875472 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

a) To know the time when the population will be 305 million people, we need to isolate the variable t in the equation, $P(t)=288(1.009)^{t-1997}$

So we isolate t with the property of logarithms that allow us go down the exponent, applying in both sides of the equation

For this subsection the value of P is equal to 305 million people

$Ln(305)=Ln[(288)(1.009)]^{t-1997}$

Ln(305)=(t-1997)*Ln[(288)(1.009)]

Now, we can isolate the value of t

$\frac{Ln(305)}{Ln[(288)(1.009)]} =t-1997$

$\frac{Ln(305)}{Ln[(288)(1.009)]}-1997 =t$

t=1998.008531776402

So to know the exact date we multiply the number after the point, that is 0.008531776402 for the number of days that have 1 year, equal to 365 days

0.008531776402*365= 3.114098387 days

then the number after the point, that is 0.114098387 will be multiply for the number of hours that have 1 day

0.114098387*24= 2.738361282 hours

then the number after the point, that is 0.738361282 will be multiply for the number of minutes that have 1 hour

0.738361282*60= 44.3016769 minutes

Finally, the number after the point, that is 0.3016769 will be multiply for the number of seconds that have 1 minute

0.3016769*60= 18.1006141 seconds

And we obtain that the time, when the population of the country is 305 million people, is in the year 1998 with 3 days, 2 hours, 44 minutes and 25.152 seconds

b) For calculate the time when the population is 395 million people, we do the same process we did in the subsection a)

$Ln(395)=Ln[(288)(1.009)]^{t-1997}$

Ln(395)=(t-1997)*Ln[(288)(1.009)]

Now, we can isolate the value of t

$\frac{Ln(395)}{Ln[(288)(1.009)]} =t-1997$

$\frac{Ln(395)}{Ln[(288)(1.009)]}-1997 =t$

t=1998.05412021527

0.05412021527*365= 19.75387857 days

0.75387857 *24= 18.09308577 hours

0.09308577*60= 5.585145912 minutes

0.585145912*60= 35.10875472 seconds

And we obtain that the time, when the population of the country is 395 million people, is in the year 1998 with 19 days, 18 hours, 5 minutes and 35.10875472 seconds
