    Answer: 1,971,000

    Step-by-step explanation:

    7% increase per year = 7/100 x 900,000

    =63000; population will therefore increase by 63,000 per year.

    In 17 years, it will have increased by 63,000 * 17 = 1,071,000

    Population in 17 years will be current population + increase

    =900,000 + 1,071,000

    =1,971,000
