Let t=number of years since 1991.
Then 
P(t)=147 e^(kt)   ... in millions
P(0)=147 e^(0)=147
P(7)=147 e^(7k)=153
e^(7k)=(153/147)
take ln both sides
ln(e^(7k))=ln(153/147)
7k=0.0400 => k=0.005715

Year 2017=>t=2017-1991=26
P(26)=147e^(26*.005715)=170.55
Answer: in 2017, the projected population is 170.55 millions.

By exercising regularly, Abby was able to improve her running right this year. Last year, Abby ran a mile in 12 minutes. This ye
OleMash [197]

Answer:

She decreased her running time at a rate of 16.67%

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked basically to calculate the percentage decrease in Abby’s running time.

Mathematically, the percentage decrease equals: (new running time - old running time)/old running time * 100%

We input the values and proceed as follows:

Percentage decrease = (10-12)/12 * 100

-2/12 * 100/1 = -1/6 * 100 = -16.67%

Since it’s a decrease, we just simply say that her running time decrease by 16.67%
