Every 10 years, the Census counts how many people are living in every town in the US.  
- The 2010 Census showed that 2000 people lived in Fruitland, and 5000 people lived in Batcave.
- The population of Fruitland is predicted to double every 5 years.
- The population of Batcave is predicted to increase by 1000 every 5 years.
*If the predictions are true, what will be the first Census year that Fruitland's population will be larger than Batcave?
