Answer:

2062 employees

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, you have an exponential function going on here. If you start with 900 employees and add 5 percent to the amount of employees (multiply by 1.005) seventeen times, you will get the equation [tex]E=900*1.05^{17}[/tex]. If we round down (because there can not be a fraction of an employee), there will be 2062 employees after 17 years.
