Answer:

About 28,671,342 people

Step-by-step explanation:

This is compound growth problem. This goes by the formula:

F=P(1+r)^t

Where

F is the future amount (in 3 years)

P is the present amount (28.5 million)

r is the rate of growth (0.4% = 0.4/100 = 0.004)

t is the time in years (3 years)

We first, need to find the rate of growth annually. It is given 0.4% every 2 years, so in 1 year that would be:

0.4%/2 = 0.2% = 0.002

Now, we put the information into formula and solve:

F=P(1+r)^t\\F=28500000(1+0.002)^3\\F=28500000(1.002)^3\\F=28,671,342

So, around 28,671,342 people will be infected in 3 years.

In a football tournament, the Bees scored 9 less than three times as many points as the Hornets. The Wasps scored 28 more points
gladu [14]
B = bees, w = wasps, x = hornets

b + w + x = 184
b = 3x - 9
w = x + 28

(3x - 9) + (x + 28) + x = 184...combine like terms
5x + 19 = 184
5x = 184 - 19
5x = 165
x = 165/5
x = 33 <== points scored by Hornets
