3. The population of a certain country is predicted to be P(t)=60e0.060r number of years since the year 2010. Find the average number of people in the country between 2010 and 2020 (during the interval from t = 0 to t = 10). Work this problem out “by hand", not using the calculus million people, where t is the functions in your graphing calculator, and show your reasoning in detail. State your answer rounded to 2 decimal places. Your must state correct units in your answer for full credit.
