Answer:
the intrinsic growth rate of the population = 0.67 - 0.06 = 0.61 or 61%
Step-by-step explanation:
since populations increase exponentially, the same will happen here
in 5 years the population should be:
P₅ = P₀e°⁶¹ˣ⁵ = 140e°⁶¹ˣ⁵ = 2,956.15 ≈ 2,956
in 10 years the population will be:
P₁₀ = P₀e°⁶¹ˣ¹⁰ = 140e°⁶¹ˣ¹⁰ = 62,420.09 ≈ 62,420
when you are using exponential growth rates, we have to assume that r will always remain constant
