A country pledges to reduce its annual
CO₂ emissions by 2% per year. If the
emissions in 2022 are 4,200 Mt (metric
megatons), what are the maximum
allowable emissions in the year 2031?

Answer :

The maximum value of allowable emissions in the year 2031 is equal to 3,502.

How to calculate the maximum value?

In order to determine the maximum value of allowable emissions in the year 2031, we would use an exponential function which also relates to compound interest as follows:

A = P(1 - r)^t

For the time, we have:

Time, t = 2031 - 2022

Time, t = 9

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

A = 4,200(1 - 0.02)^9

A = 4,200(0.98)^9

A = 4,200 × 0.8338

A = 3501.7 ≈ 3,502.
