Sorry about that, I'm talking nonsense. My head is too sore to concentrate.

so using that it would be like above, 6.1 x 10⁹ + 10 / 1.6 x 10⁹

OK, here's a method that is perhaps a bit easier conceptually. You are told that

N_{2000}=6.1 \times 10^9

You have worked out the value of

k

, and you have either already determined, or can determine by reference to your earlier working, the value of

N_0

.

You can use your values for

k

and

N_0

to find the value of

N_{2010}

.

Then, from the given value of

N_{2000}

and the value of

N_{2010}

you have just worked out, you can determine the % increase in population across the ten year period.
