Transcribed Image Text:A mathematical model for world population growth over short intervals is given by P = Poet, where Po is the
population at time t = 0, r is the continuous compound rate of growth, t is the time in years, and P is the population at
time t. How long will it take the world population to quadruple if it continues to grow at its current continuous
compound rate of 1.33% per year?
Substitute the given values into the equation for the population. Express the population at time t as a function of Po.
☐Po
