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.

Which expression demonstrates the use of the commutative property of addition in the first step of simplifying the expression (–
madam [21]
The first step of simplifying the expression would be summing up the "i"s. They are separate ("+i" and "+5i") but you can still sum them up though they are apart. This is thanks to the commutative property of addition which allows summing the terms of an expression with several additions in whatever order it is prefered. Commutative means that the terms can be interchangeable.

AB is Tangent to circle O at B. if AB = 7 and AO = 17.4, what is the length of radius r to the nearest tenth?
irakobra [83]
The angle the radius makes with AB is a right angle, so the Pythagorean theorem applies.
  r² = 17.4² - 7² = 253.76
  r = √253.76 ≈ 15.9

The length of radius r is about 15.9.
