Answer:

15,600,000

Step-by-step explanation:

We start with our initial population of 600,000. Then multiply that with the rate of 4% (0.04 in decimal, or 1.04 so that the 0.04 is automatically added to the 600,000.)

  • 600,000 · 1.04y = projected population
  • y = 25
  • 600,000 · 1.04(25) = projected population
  • simplify!
  • 15,600,000 = proejcted population
