Problem 7: A community has an estimated population of 40 X103 capita in a period of 25 years ahead. The present population is 30 X103 capita with a daily water consumption of 20 X 103 m³/d. The existing water treatment plant (WTP) has a maximum design capacity of 45.6 X 103 m³/day, assuming an arithmetic growth rate; determine for how many years this plant will reach its design сарacity.
