Answer:

The answer is "7.122 billion"

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the complete question in the attached file.

Using formula:

[tex]\to y=Ce^{kt}[/tex]  

[tex]C=5.937\\\\y=6.771\\\\t=10\\\\ k=?6.771=5.937e^{10k}\\\\1.1405=e^{10k}\\\\\ln(1.1405)={10\ k}\\\\0.013={k}\\\\[/tex]

So,  

[tex]\to y=5.937e^{.013t}\\\\[/tex]

when it becomes [tex]2012, \ t=14[/tex] so plug the value into the formula  

[tex]\to y= 5.937e^{.013(14)} =7.122 \ billion[/tex]
