In 1981, the population of Canada was about 24 million. Ever since, the population has been increasing steadily by 1.4% per year. (a) Write an equation that models this scenario (choose your own variables as you wish). (b) According to your model, what was the population of Canada in 2000? (c) When, if possible, will the Canadian population reach 50 million?
