In a estate, the population in the first is 10250 and it increases to 11480 in the second year. It is estimated that the population will increase at the same rate for the next few years.The community services for the aged in the estate are expected to serve 2500 old people in the first year. The number of old people who will receive these services is expected to increase at a stesdy rate of 10% per year.

✔ 最佳答案
%increase in population /yrs=(11480-10250)/10250x100%=12%
no. of old people in the 7th yrs=10250(1+12%)^6x34%
=6879,cor. to the nearest whole no.
no. of old people receiving service in 7th yrs=2500(1+10%)^6=4429,cor. to the nearest whole no.
since 4429 is less than 6879
so there isn'e sufficient community services provided

First, you have to find the growth rate of the population.
(11480 - 10250)/ 10250 x 100% = 12%
Then u can use the growth rate to find the population in the seventh year.
i.e. 10250 * (1+12%) to the power 7~ (similar to the calculation to find the compounded interest)
After u find the population in 7th year, then u times 34% with that amount, then u can know how many old people in the 7th year. (answer A)
Second part, u have to find the service provided in the 7th year.
2500 * ( 1 + 10%) to the power 7~ (answer B)
Then u can compare answers A and B to see whether it is sufficient. (A > B -- insufficient; A < B -- sufficient)
