The triangles are similar 
so
(x+8)/42 = 24/(2x-4)
(x+8)(2x-4) = 24 * 42
2x^2 + 16x - 4x - 32 = 1008
2x^2 + 12x - 32 = 1008
2x^2 + 12x - 1040 = 0
2(x^2 + 6x - 520) = 0
2(x + 26)(x - 20) = 0
x + 26 = 0; x = -26
x - 20 = 0; x = 20

Since the side of triangle can't be negative so x = 20

Answer
x = 20

One estimate of the population of the world on January 1, 2005, is
inn [45]

Answer:

8,566,379,470 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start simple.  In order to find the population increase on January 1, 2006, we need to multiply 6,486,915,022 by 1.4% and add it to 6,486,915,022.

  1. 6,486,915,022*1.4% = 90,816,810.308
  2. 90,816,810.308+6,486,915,022 = 6,577,731,832.31 people on January 2006.

Note that the above two steps gives the same answer as 6,486,915,022*1.014.

So we need to do this for each year.  20 years pass between 1/1/2005 and 1/1/2025.  

We need to do 6,486,915,022*1.014*1.014*1.014... 20 times.

This is equivalent to 6,486,915,022*1.014^{20}.

Multiplying it out gives us 8566379470.2 = 8,566,379,470 people.
