Solve.The following table shows a country's population from 1995 to 1998:Divide the population for each year by the population in the preceding year. Use this ratio to write the general term of the geometric sequence describing the country's population growth n years after 1994. Then estimate the country's population, in millions, in 2005.

A. an = 11.10(1.04)n - 1; 21.84 million
B. an = 11.10(1.05)n - 1; 18.98 million
C. an = 11.10(1.04)n - 1; 20.41 million
D. an = 11.10(1.05)n - 1; 18.08 million
