13 The number of animals in a population at the start of year \(t\) is \(P_t\)
The number of animals at the start of year 1 is 400
Given that
\(P_{t+1} = 1.01P_t\)
work out the number of animals at the start of year 3 (2)
| Answer | Mark | Mark scheme |
|---|---|---|
| 408 | M1 | for \(1.01 \times 400\) (= 404) or 408.04 or 412.08 |
| A1 | cao |
Additional guidance
412(.08) on the answer line M1A0
\(1.01 \times 400\) may be seen as part of a calculation
