What is an expression?

Expression in maths is defined as the collection of the numbers variables and functions by using signs like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division

.

Using the relation :

y = 180000(1.07)^x

x = Number of days since May 6 ;

y = Number of mosquitoes after x days

x = May 9 May 19  = 10 days

Therefore, a number of mosquitoes inhabiting the city on May 19 will be :

y = 180000(1.07)^10

y = 180000  x  1.96715136

y = 354087.24

y = 354087.24  (nearest whole number).

Therefore there will be 354087.24 mosquitoes on the 19th of May.
