Answer:
56,735 people
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set up an equation to model this:
The equation for exponential decay is y = C(1 - r)^t, where C is the original amount, r is rate of change, and t is time.
We can plug in the corresponding values and solve:
y = 62500(1 - 0.016)^6
y = 62500(0.984)^6
y = (62500)(0.9077)
y = 56,734.94, which we can round to 56,735 people
Standard form is
ax+by=c
where a,b,c are integers
y+3=1/4x
timesboth sides by 4
4y+12=x
minus x both sides
-x+4y+12=0
minus 12 both sides
-x+4y=-12
(I like x to be positive so)
times both sides by -1
1x-4y=12
a=1
b=-4
c=12
“a” would equal 7!! hope this helps :)
