fill in the y and solve

23= 2x-1+x
23=3x-1
+1 +1

natita [175]

Answer:

The projected population in 2026 is of 699.3 million.

Step-by-step explanation:

Population:

The population, in x years after 2000, is given by the follwing equation:

y - 4.55x = 581

That is:

y(x) = 4.55x + 581

What is projected population in 2026?

2026 - 2000 = 26, so this is y(26).

y(26) = 4.55(26) + 581 = 699.3

The projected population in 2026 is of 699.3 million.

22/8  -  3/8  = 19/8

The difference is 19/8
