Question

A growing farming conglomerate increases its water usage at a rate of 12% every year. If it used 80,450 megaliters of water this year, then how much water will it use 15 years from now? If necessary, round your answer to the nearest hundreth.

Answer 1

ok

1.- 80450(0.12)= 90104 L

2.-90104(0.12) = 100916.48 L

3.- 100916.48(0.12) = 113026.5 L

4.-113026.5(0.12) = 126589.7 L

5.- 126589.7(0.12) = 141780.6 L

6.- 141780.6 L(0.12) = 158794.3 L

7.- 158794.3 L(0.12) = 177849.6 L

8.- 177849.6 L(0.12) = 199191.6 L

9.- 199191.6 L(0.12) = 223094.5 L

10.- 223094.5 L(0.12) = 249865.8 L

11.- 249865.8 L(0.12) = 279849.7 L

12.- 279849.7 L(0.12) = 313431.7 L

13.- 313431.7 L(0.12) = 351043.5 L

14.- 351043.5 L(0.12) = 393168.7 L

15.- 393168.7 L(0.12) = 440348.9 L

Result 440348.95 mL
