The number of mosquito at the beginning of the summer was 4,000. the population of mosquito is expected to grow at a rate of 25% a month . how many mosquitoes will there be after 4 months

about 9765 mosquitoes

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an exponential growth problem which follows the formula:

Where A is the future amount (we need this after 4 months)

P is the initial amount (here, it is 4000)

r is the rate of increase (here it is 25% or 0.25)

t is the time period (here t= 4, because we want to know after 4 months)

plugging in all the available/given info, we can solve for A:

Since, no fractional mosquitoes, we round down to 9765 mosquitoes

77
