Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The population in 2003= 47000
Since the population increase by 1200 every year,
in 2004 the population will be 47000+1200
in 2005 the population will be 47000+(1200+1200) which is the same as
47000+2(1200) where 2 is 2 years after 2003,
Therefore the population x years after 2003 is 47000+x(1200).
P= 47000+1200x
b) The population at 2009 which is 6 years after 2003 will be
47000+(1200)*6=47000+7200= 54200
The population at 2009 is 54200,
Y=-5.11111 how I solved it is in the picture attached
