Since in 1990 there are 28%, we need to figure out when it gets to 31%. In addition, since it increases by 0.6% every year, we can say that 0.6x+28 (since 28 is the base value) is the percentage of babies born in wedlock every year. Therefore, to get 0.6x+28=31, we subtract 28 from both sides to get 0.6x=3
Dividing both sides by 0.6, we get x=5=the amount of years it takes to get 31% of babies born in wedlock. Since 1990 is the base value (we start from there!), we add 5 to that to get 1990+5=1995 as the yar
So hi
In order to do this problem you do, 5/9×10
The answer will be 50/9 which is 5 5/9.

Please, proofread your problem statements before posting them. Your "If 1,600 people live 25% of the population how many people need to leave" should be written as "<span>If the whole population is 1,600 and 25% of them need to leave, how many must leave?"
0.25(1600) = 400
400 people need to leave. This is 25% of the entire population, or 25% of 1600 people. Please note: it's "leave," not "live."</span>
The equation x=2 is not a function. Multiple y-values are associated with the single input x=2.
