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.

Find the mean of this set of numbers.
mr_godi [17]
Mean is basically average
basically find how many terms (there are 6 terms)
then add them all together
5+-11+7+12+-1+0 =12
then divide the sum by the number of terms
12 divided by 6=12/6=2

the answer is 2 or B
