1) How long does it a town of 80,000 people to grow to 100,000 if it’s growing at a rate of 3% per year? Assume that
the population is “compounding” annually. Round to the nearest tenth of a year. Objective U: I N P E

2) What annual interest rate would allow $5,000 to grow to $7,000 over the course of 9 years if it’s compounding
quarterly? Round to the nearest hundredth of a percent. Objective W: I N P E
