Given parameters:
Current population = 530,300 people
Growth rate = 0.8% per year
Unknown
Population in 15 more years = ?
To solve this problem, we must compound the increase per year.
This implies that we treat the problem like that of a compound interest.
Since we know that population increases by 0.8%,
it is similar to 1 +
= 1.008 increase
Now the population in 15years will be;
530300 x (1.008)¹⁵ = 597626 people
So, the population after 15yrs is 597626 people
Answer:
30% students
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of total students of a school.
63% are girls then total number of girls = (0.63)x
37% are boys then total number of boys = ( 0.37)x
Now 23% of girls wear contacts then total number of girls
= (0.63x) × 0.23
= (0.1449x)
And 42% of boys wear contacts then total number of boys wearing contacts
= (0.37x) ( 0.42)
= (0.1554)x
Total students wears contacts = ( 0.1449x) + (0.1554x)
= (0.3003x)
Percentage of students wear contacts =
× 100
=
× 100
= 30%
All 30% students wear contacts.
