Respuesta :

Answer:

5,278

Explanation:

The computation of the population of the town after 8 years from now is as follows;

After 12 years, the total population is

= 2262 × 3

= 6,786

increment in the population is

= 6,786 - 2262

= 4,524

Per year increment is

= 4,524 ÷ 12

= 377

Now after 8 years it should be

= 2,262 + 377 × 8

= 5,278
