To calculate the population growth rate exponentially for a given year, you need to know the initial population, the growth rate per annum, and the number of years.
The formula to calculate exponential population growth is:
P = P0 * e^(r * t)
Where: P = final population after t years P0 = initial population r = growth rate per annum (expressed as a decimal) t = number of years
Let's say the initial population is 1000, the growth rate per annum is 0.05 (5% per annum), and you want to calculate the population after 10 years.
P = 1000 * e^(0.05 * 10) P = 1000 * e^0.5 P ≈ 1000 * 1.6487212707 P ≈ 1648.72
Therefore, the population after 10 years would be approximately 1648.72.
