Lets say that x is the # of years in between 1844 and 2015
Then we have:
After doing the subtraction using a calculator or a pencil and paper, you get that:
So 171 years have passed from 1844 to reach to 2015.

The population of a town has approximately doubled every 17 years since 1950.
the equation P= where Po is the population of the town in 1950, is used to model the population, P, of the town t years after 1950.
When t=17 yrs
P=2
for 1 year
The equation becomes
P = -------------(1)
Our original equation is
----------------------------------(2)
equating expression 1 and 2
Cancelling from both sides we get
t/17=k
⇒k=t/17 is the solution.
