Answer:
242, 900 people
Step-by-step explanation:
To begin, it says that the population grew by 5%.
(241000)(1.00 + 0.05) = <em>population of the city in 2015</em>
(241000)(1.05) = 253050
253050 is the population of the city in 2015. From 2015 to 2020 it fell four percent.
(253050)(1.00 - 0.04) = <em>population of the city in 2020</em>
(253050)(0.96) = 242928
242928 is the exact population of the city. However, it says to round to the nearest hundred. Since 28 is less than 50, then it would round down to 900.
Therefore, the answer would be 242, 900 people.
The first part is 1325
10 x 35=350
15 x 65=975
The you add them which equals 1325
