Answer:
The population of the town at the end of 2017 was 65,550.
Step-by-step explanation:
The population of the town was 60,000 in the beginning of 2016.
In 2016, the total population is increased by 15%.

Therefore the population is increased by 9000 and the population of the town at the end of 2016 was

In 2017, the total population is decreased by 5%.

Therefore the population is decreased by 3450 and the population of the town at the end of 2017 was

Therefore the population of the town at the end of 2017 was 65,550.
Answer:
(1, –5)
Step-by-step explanation:
It is relatively easy to try the offered solutions to see what works.
<u>(1, -5)</u>
3(1) +10(-5) = -47 . . . true
5(1) -7(-5) = 40 . . . true
(1, -5) is the solution
_____
As a check, you can try some of the other choices:
<u>(1, 5)</u>
3(1) +10(5) ≠ -47
<u>(-1, -5)</u>
3(-1) +10(-5) ≠ -47
<u>(-1, 5)</u>
3(-1) +10(5) ≠ -47
None of the other choices works in the first equation, so they're not the solution.
