Leander planted 100 acres with soybeans and he plans to increase his field size by 3% each year. What will be the size of Leander's field after 5 years? Round to the nearest whole number.

Respuesta :

We use the following exponential function, to model the problem:

[tex]S=100(1+0.03)^t,[/tex]

where t is the time in years.

Substituting t=5, we get:

[tex]S=100(1.03)^5.[/tex]

Computing the above operations, we get:

[tex]S\approx116.[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]116\text{ acres.}[/tex]
