Problem 5

A factory consumes electricity at a rate of 1500 MJ1500\(\text{ MJ}\) per year at t=0 t = 0 years. The consumption rate increases by 2.1% 2.1\% per year. What is the total energy (in units of MJ\(\text{MJ}\)) consumed by the factory over the next 5 5 years, starting from t=0 t = 0 ? Round to the nearest hundred MJ\(\text{MJ}\).
