The population of a certain island has an annual growth rate of 6.9%. if you start with a poplulation of 2500 people, what would the population be in 10 years?

The answer is biodiversity resulting from new ancestors.

Look, when you want to do something like put it like x^2. x2 could mean x² or x₂. so to clear confusion, know the notation. to find the product multiply the x's and you get -8x and the y's and you get 6y. since it's all being multiplied it is just -8x6y, or answer a. although the better answer is -48xy(combining -8 and 6) because you should multiply constants whenever you can.
