One estimate of the population of the world on january 1, 2005, is 6,486,915,022. the population is estimated to be increasing at the rate of 1.4% per year. at this rate, what will the population of the world be on january 1, 2026? round your answer to the nearest whole number.

The answer is 8,686,308,783.

To calculate this, we will use the equation for exponential function:

y - the future population
x - the current population
r - the rate of increasing the population
n - the number of years

It is given:
x = 6,486,915,022
r = 1.4% = 0.014
n = 2026 - 2005 = 21
