Answer:

It can be modeled with the equation $A=P(1.02)^6$ but needs a starting population number to finish.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the population in a future year, use the formula:

$A = P (1+/-r)^t$

where A is the amount, p is the starting population, r is 2% or 0.02, and t is the number of years.

Since the population is increasing it is addition. Substitute r=0.02 and t=6. Without a starting population, we cannot find the population in 6 years.

$A = P (1+r)^t\\A=P(1+0.02)^6\\A=P(1.02)^6$

Hue is arranging chairs. She can form 2 rows of a given length with 2 chairs left over, or 6 rows of that same length if she get

Nady [450]

There are 7 chairs in each row length.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let number of chairs in 1 row be 'x'.
Let total number of chairs be 'y'.
Given:
Hue can form 6 rows of a given length with 3 chairs left over.
It means that Total number of chairs is equal to chairs in 1 rows multiplied by number of rows which is 6 plus number of chairs which is left which is 3.
Framing in equation form we get.

Also Given:
Hue can form 8 rows of that same length if she gets 11 more chairs.
It means that Total number of chairs is equal to chairs in 1 rows multiplied by number of rows which is 8 minus number of chairs which is required more which is 11.
Framing in equation form we get.

From equation 1 and equation 2 we can say that L.H.S is same.
So according to law of transitivity we get;

Combining like terms we get;

Using Subtraction and Addition property we get;

Now Using Division Property we will divide both side by 2.

Hence there are 7 chairs in each row length.
