The rule for multiplying similar bases with exponents is:
(a^b)*(a^c)=a^(b+c)
In this case you have:
(x^9)(x^2)
x^(9+2)
x^11
Use a variable, x, to stand in for the number.
5+x is less than 17.
x is less than 12
Hope this helps!

The population of the town in 36 years would be 8000.
<h3>What would be the population of the town in 36 years?</h3>
The formula that can be used to determine the town's population is:
FV = P (1 + r)^n
Where:
- FV = Future value
- P = Present value
- R = rate of growth = 100%
- N = number of years = 36/9 = 4
500 x 2^4 = 8000
