The share of first, second and third will be 22875, 7625 , 61000 respectively

Let the share of first, second and third on be x, y, z respectively

We know the total share between three friends = 91500

x+y+z = 91500 ....(i)

Then,

First gets share three times as much as second

x = 3y ......(ii)

Third gets share twice as much as the other two combined

z = 2(x+y) ......(iii)

Solving equation (i),(ii) and (iii) we get,

3y+y+2(3y+y) = 91500

12y = 91500

y = 7625

Similarly, putting value of y in (ii) and (iii) equation we get,

x = 22,875

z = 61,000

City planners anticipate an 8.2% population growth per year, including new residents and births. The population, in millions of
NNADVOKAT [17]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The correct option is the third option,

L(p(x))=2.425(1.082)^{x}

<h2>Why?</h2>

From the statement we know the function that models the population growth over the years (p(x)) but we have been told that there is an estimated loss that can be modeled by the function L(p), so in order to find which function represents the final function, we need to composite the function, which is the same that evaluate p(x) into the function L(p).

We are given:

p(x)=2.5(1.082)^{x}

and

L(p(x))=p(0.97)

So, the evaluationg p(x) into L(p), we have:

L(p(x))=p(0.97)\\\\L(p(x))=2.5(1.082)^{x}*(0.97)=0.97*2.5(1.082)^{x} \\\\L(p(x))=0.97*2.5(1.082)^{x}=2.425(1.082)^{x}\\\\L(p(x))=2.425(1.082)^{x}

Hence, the correct option is:

The third option,  

L(p(x))=2.425(1.082)^{x}
