4) Suppose the acreage of forest is decreasing by 2% per year because of
development. If there are currently 4,500,000 acres of forest, determine
the amount of forest land to the nearest acre after 5 years.

Can someone help me out with this?

Respuesta :

450,000 acres because 2 divided by 100 is 0.02, 0.02 x 4,500,000 is 90,000, 90,000 x 5 is 450,000
