Answer:

112,547.095  million

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question

Population of a city in 2005 = 18,000

In the year 2010, the city population = 45,000

Now to find out the projected population for 2015 we use the exponential model

 P = P(0)\times e^{rt}

where

P(0) = Initial population

r = growth rate

t = time

e = natural log

So,

45,000 = 18,000 \times e^{5r}

So

e^{5r} = \frac{45}{18}

5r = ln \frac{(45)}{(18)}

r ≈ 0.1833

Now

P = 18,000e^{10\times0.1833}

= 112,547.095  million

4x + 8y=20<br> 3x+6y=15<br> solve this system of equations
laila [671]
4x=20-8y

x=5-2y now use this value of x in the second equation...

3(5-2y)+6y=15

15-6y+6y=15

15=15  This is true for any y or x value.

So there are infinitely many solutions as the two equations describe the same line.
