Answer: 12,503 people
Step-by-step explanation:
This is an exponential decrease so to find the population in 8 years you have to use a future value formula:
= Amount * (1 + rate) ^ number of years
= 15,000 ( 1 + (-2.25%)) ⁸
= 15,000 * (1 - 2.25%)⁸
= 12,503.32
= 12,503 people
Answer:
x ≤ 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2(4x - 2) - 2/3(6x + 9) ≤ 4
2x-1 - 4x+6 ≤ 4
2x-4x-1+6 ≤ 4
-2x + 5 ≤ 4
-5 -5
-2x ≤ -1
2x ≤ 1
2x/2 ≤ 1/2
x ≤ 1/2
