In the example we modeled the world population in the second half of the 20th century by the equation

Question

P(t) = 2560e0.017185t.
Use this equation to estimate the average world population during the time period of 1950 to 2000. (Round your answer to the nearest million.)

Answer 1

As usual, the average value is
1/50 ∫[0,50] P(t) dt
assuming that t is the number of years since 1950
