You can try formulating an equation to model this change:

Let 'x' be the population of the town last year. It follows that: 
1.21x = 15049 

and hence 
x =  \frac{15049}{1.21}

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

110 yards of string

Step-by-step explanation:

Converting the feet of the string of 1 balloon to yard

1 foot = 1/3 yard

6 feet = x

x = 6 × 1/3 yard

x = 2 yard

Hence 1 balloon uses 2 yard of string

Since:

1 balloon = 2 yard of string

55 ballons = x

x = 55 × 2 yard of string

x = 110 yards of string

Hence, for 55 balloons he would need 110 yards of string.

A=130(1.05)^x by what percent does the balence increase each year?
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

5%

Step-by-step explanation:

The question showing a growing function that commonly used in compound interest calculation. The formula for compound interest is:

A = P (1 +r) ^ t

A= amount of the balance after a period of t

P= principal, the initial money deposit

r= rate

t= time

The percent of balance increase should be represented by the rate(r). In this equation, the principal will be 130, (1+r) will be 1.05, and time will be x.

The value of rate (r) will be:

(1+r) = 1.05

r= 1.05-1= 0.05 = 5%
