The answer is 31,500.
Let's clarify some things :
1% of 45,000 is 450
Maybe you're wondering why , it's actually very simple .
Just move the decimal to the left once if you want to find 10% , move the decimal twice if you want to find 1%.
We now that 1% equals 450. Then 2% equals to....
Well just add another 1% .
450 + 450 or 450 times 2
Which equals 900.
Now we want to find what's the population after 15 years.
900 times 15= 13,500
But that's not the answer ....
That's what is decreasing.
45,000 - 13,500= 31,500
That's why the answer is 31,500.

Match the equation with its corresponding solution for x.
Fudgin [204]

To solve for x, you need to isolate/get the variable "x" by itself in the equation:

3x - 3(x + 1) = 3     Distribute/multiply -3 into (x + 1)

3x + (-3)x + (-3)1 = 3

3x - 3x + 1 = 3

1 = 3

Your answer is no solution because the variable "x" is canceled out and 1 ≠ 3
