You could attempt doing a log mean.


If your population was growing linearly, you could simply do:

\frac{(Y_2+Y_1)}{(2)}=Present

Y2=6.25million, Y1=4million


This would work since you are right in the middle of a straight line.


However, since your population is growing exponentially, you would take a log mean, which would look like this:

\frac{(Y_2-Y_1)}{ln(Y_2/Y_1)}


This will give you the middle number with respect to an exponential curve. This would only work because the time difference is 5 years in both directions, so if the time difference was not equal in both directions, you'd have to develop an exponential equation that would fit your data.

A telephone pole is 24 feet tall. Curtis, who is standing some distance away from the telephone pole measures the angle of eleva
taurus [48]

The distance from the base of the telephone pole to Curtis is about 15 feet.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more number and variables.

Trigonometric ratio is used to show the relationship between the sides and angles of a right angled triangle.

Let d represent the distance from the base of the telephone pole to Curtis, hence:

tan(51.4) = (24 - 5.2) / d

d = 15 feet

The distance from the base of the telephone pole to Curtis is about 15 feet.
