X = 1st job
y = 2nd job

x + y = 22......x = 22 - y
7x + 8.25y = 171.50

7(22 - y ) + 8.25y = 171.50
154 - 7y + 8.25y = 171.50
-7y + 8.25y = 171.50 - 154
1.25y = 17.50
y = 17.50 / 1.25
y = 14 <== 14 hrs at the 8.25 per hr job

x + y = 22
x + 14 = 22
x = 22 - 14
x = 8 <=== 8 hrs at the 7 per hr job

A population increases 3% each year. If the city is now 5 million, what will the population be in 5 years?
Step2247 [10]
5 million x 3% = 150,000
1 Year = 5,150,000

5.15 million x 3% = 154,500
2 Years = 5,304,500

5,304,500 x 3% = 159,135
3 Years = 5,463,635

5,463,635 x 3% = 163,909.05
4 Years = 5,627,544.05

5,627,544.05 x 3% = 168,826.322
5 Years = 5,796,370.37

After 5 years, the population will be 5,796,370.37
