The population in 2020 will be 57657.5 approximately

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Population in 2014, P = 62,500

Rate of decrease, r = 1.6%

Population in 2020, Q = ?

Number of years between 2014 to 2020 = 5 years

Population in 2020 = P(1 - \frac{r}{100} )^t

Substituting the value we get:

Q = 62500(1- \frac{1.6}{100})^5\\ \\Q = 62500 ( 0.92252) \\\\Q = 57657.46

Therefore, the population in 2020 will be 57657.5 approximately

-4 (5y + 5) = -120 y =
Sedbober [7]

-4 (5y + 5) = -120

multiply the bracket by -4

(-4)(5y)=-20y

(-4)(5)=-20

-20y-20=-120

move -20 to +20

-20y-20+20=-120+20

-20y=-120+20

-20y=-100

divide both sides by -20 to get y by itself

-20y/-20=-100/-20

Answer: y=5
