Answer: 12,503 people

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an exponential decrease so to find the population in 8 years you have to use a future value formula:

= Amount * (1 + rate) ^ number of years

= 15,000 ( 1 + (-2.25%)) ⁸

= 15,000 * (1 - 2.25%)⁸

= 12,503.32

= 12,503 people

The answer is D. Think of the Pythagorean Theorem which states that a^2 + b^2 = c^2. The Pythagorean Identities used in trigonometry are the angle version which can be used to simplify expressions.
