You can figure the remaining percentage in 2050 and calculate using that, or you can figure the amount of population that will be lost and subtract that from the 2006 value.

First method: The remaining population will be 100% - 5.8% = 94.2% of that in 2006. 0.942×40.2 million ≈ 37.9 million

Second method: 5.8% of 40.2 million is about 2.3 million, so the remaining population will be 40.2 - 2.3 = 37.9 million

Write an equation of a line that passes through the point (2, 3) and is parallel to the line y = 3 over 2 x +5.

Oliga [24]

We have that

Write an equation of a line that passes through the point (2, 3) and is parallel to the line y = (3/2)x +5

parallel lines are the same slope
then
m=(3/2)

step 1

find the equation of a line with
m=3/2 and point (2,3)

y-y1=m*(x-x1)----------> y-3=(3/2)*(x-2)------> y=(3/2)x

the answer is
y=(3/2)x
y = 3 over 2 x

see the attached figure
