Answer:

313,600

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t represent number of years after Beth's 9th birthday.

We have been given that since Beth was born the population of her towns has increased at a rate of 850 people per year. So number of people increased in t years would be 850t.

We are also told that on Beth's 9th birthday the total population was nearly 307,650. This means that t-intercept is 307,650.

The population of town t years after Beth's birthday would be P(t)=850t+307,650.

To find population on Beth's 16th birthday, we will substitute t=7 in our equation as Beth's 16th birthday would be 7 years after 9th birthday.

P(t)=850(7)+307,650

P(7)=5950+307,650

P(7)=313,600

Therefore, the population on Beth's 16th birthday would be 313,600.

Nothing else is given, so for the two triangles to be congruent, the only possible proof is the ASA theorem.
first pairs of angles: 2x+7=x+21 => x=14
second pairs of angles: 8y-4=4y+28 =>y=8
The two triangles share the same side PR
Based on the Angle-Side-Angle Triangle Congruence theorem, these two triangles are congruent with x=14, y=8
(2x+7) +(8y-4) +Q=180 =>85
