Answer:
The population of the town in the year 1962 will be 1730.
Step-by-step explanation:
The population of Smallville can be found by the equation
, where P(t) is the population at time t, r represents the rate of growth, and I is the initial population.
Now, if there are 225 residents in 1950 and the population of the town grows at a rate of 17% per year, then the population of the town in the year 1962 will be
(Approximate)
Y = -2 x - 9
3 x - 4(-2 x - 9 ) = -8
3 x + 8 x + 36 = - 8
11 x = - 44, x = - 4
y = 8 - 9 , y = -1
This is a unique solution, the system is independent.
