Answer: the population after 10 years is 12036
Step-by-step explanation:
We would apply the formula for exponential growth which is expressed as
A = P(1 - r)^ t
Where
A represents the population after t years.
t represents the number of years.
P represents the initial population.
r represents rate of growth.
From the information given,
P = 14000
r = 1.5% = 1.5/100 = 0.015
t = 10 years
Therefore, the exponential decay equation to find the population of the town after 10 years is
A = 14000(1 - 0.015)^10
A = 14000(0.985)^10
A = 12036
5(x + 2/3) = 3x - 2/3.....distribute the 5 through the parenthesis
5x + 10/3 = 3x - 2/3 ....subtract 3x from both sides
5x - 3x + 10/3 = 3x - 3x - 2/3...combine like terms
2x + 10/3 = - 2/3 ....subtract 10/3 from both sides
2x + 10/3 - 10/3 = -2/3 - 10/3...simplify
2x = - 12/3....reduce
2x = - 4....divide both sides by 2
x = -4/2....reduces to -2
or this way...
5(x + 2/3) = 3x - 2/3.....distribute
5x + 10/3 = 3x - 2/3....multiply by lowest common denominator of 3
15x + 10 = 9x - 2 ....subtract 9x from both sides
15x - 9x + 10 = -2 ...subtract 10 from both sides
6x + 10 - 10 = -2 - 10...simplify
6x = -12.....divide both sides by 6
x = -12/6 reduces to -2
Answer:
