Forty three million, eighty thousand, seven hundred
Firstly, the rate of increase of Canton = 80/7720 = 0.010
The rate of increase of HP = 120/3200 = 0.0375
Apply the formula of compound interest==> A =A'(1+i)^n
The population will be equal when the following equality is satisfied
7720(1+0.01)^n = 3200(1+0.0375)^n
or
7720x1.01^n = 3200x1.0375^n
Divide both sides by 3200 ===>(193/80)x1.01^n=1.0375^n
81 + 70 + x = 3(73)
first multiply 3(73)
81 + 70 + x = 219
combine like terms
151 + x = 219
subtract 151 from both sides
x = 68
Joaquin needs to score a 68 on her next test to maintain an average of 73.
