Let's first find the equation to find what the population went up to. X, will be the population of last year.
1.15x=76,894
Now, we need x by itself, so we need to divide both sides by 1.15.
76,894÷1.15≈66,864
There are decimals, but for this problem, hae .3478 of a person would not fit.
We can check our answer.
66,864×.15=10,029.6
10,029.6+66,864=76,893.6 (rounds up to 76,864)
So the population of the town last year was about 66,864 (66,864.3478) people.

Answer:

<h2>V = 605 in³</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a volume of a pyramid:

V=\dfrac{1}{3}BH

B - area of a base

H - height

We have the square in the base with side length a = 11 in.

Area of a base:

B=11^2=121\ in^2

Calculate the volume:

V=\dfrac{1}{3\!\!\!\!\diagup_1}(121)(15\!\!\!\!\!\diagup^5)=(1)(121)(5)=605\ in^3
