I. Answer the following problem using the concept of Population Growth. Show your solutions.

The exponential growth model 𝐴=50𝑒0.07𝑡 describes the population of a city in the Philippines in
thousands, t years after 1997.

a. What is the population after 20 years?

A=P e rt
= 50 e 0.07t (20)
= 50 e 1.4 e 1.4 ≈ 4.055
= 50(4.055)
A = 202. 75
Therefore, the population of a city in the Philippines would be 202, 750 after 20 years.

b. What is the population in 2037?

Replace t with 40 from 2037-1997
A= P e rt
= 50 e 0.07t (40)
= 50 e 2.8 e 2.8 ≈ 16.445
= 50(16.445)
A = 822. 25
Therefore, the population of a city in the Philippines would be 822, 250 in 2037.

II. Let Fib(n) be the nth term of the Fibonacci sequence, starting with Fib(1)=1, and so on. Show your
solutions.
