Answer:

1162.94 km²

Step-by-step explanation:

forest cover area = 3900 km²

Area decreases every year by = 7.75 %

area after 15 years(A) = ?

[tex]A=P(1-\dfrac{r}{100})^{15}\\A =3900(1-\dfrac{7.75}{100})^{15}\\A = 1162.94 / km^2[/tex]                                      

so, the area of forest remaining after 15 years as it decreases by 7.75 % every year is equal to  1162.94 km²
