Atown has 10 acres of conservation land. the town plans to increase the amount of conservation land by about 5% every 10 years. write the equation that shows this situation. let x be the number of decades.

Land after 10 years = Present land area ()^n

Land after 10 years = 16.288 acres

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as ,

Present land area = 10 acres

it is increasing 5% for every 10 years

so,

Land after 10 years = present land area ()^n

Land after 10 years = 10 acres ()^10

                               = 10 (1.6288)

                               = 16.288 acres

Hence,  land area after 10 years will  be 16.288 acres     Answer
