Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Write the equation

2x + 1 + 5x - 8

2. Add 8 on both sides

2x + 9 = 5x

3. Get the variables together

9 = 3x

4. Solve for x and divide both sides by 3

x = 3

Hello!

\large\boxed{x = 3}

2x + 1 = 5x - 8

Solve by subtracting both sides by 2x:

2x - 2x + 1 = 5x - 2x - 8

1 = 3x - 8

Add 8 to both sides:

1 + 8 = 3x - 8 + 8

9 = 3x

Divide both sides by 3:

9/3 = 3x/3

x = 3

The population of retired citizens in Memphis is 54000. If the population decreases at a rate of 5.9 % each year. What will the
kobusy [5.1K]

We will have the following:

First, we construct the exponential decay function, that is:

P(x)=54000(1-0.059)^x\Rightarrow P(x)=54000(0.941)^x

Now, we will determine the population after 6 years:

P(6)=54000(0.941)^6\Rightarrow P(6)=37491.38638

So, the population after 6 years will be of approximately 37491 people-
