The equation would be 63500-700x=P, where 63500 is the original population, -700 is the amount the population decreases each year, x is the number of years, and P is the total population.
To answer the second part of the question, plug in 53000 for P and solve for x:
63500-700x=53000
<em>*Subtract 63500 from both sides*</em>
-700x=-10500
<em>*Divide both sides by -700*</em>
x=15
It would take 15 years for the population to drop to 53000.
Hope this helps!!

Answer:
<h2>30% is enrolled out-of-district.</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the word problem, the number is increased by 50%.
To increase a number by a percent, multiply the number and the percent.
We can do this by changing both percents to decimals.
To change a percent to a decimal, divide it by 100.
The number is INCREASED by 50% so 0.5 would become 1.5.
<h2>0.3 = 30%.</h2>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We see f(x) increase is linear and is 6 at each step, so m = 6 and y-intercept is b = -5, from point (0, -5)
<u>So the function is:</u>
Ford Family consists of:
a) 2 adults
The price of ticket for each adult is $18.55. This can be approximated to $19 if we round it to nearest dollar. So the price of ticket for 2 adults will be 2 x 19 = $38
b) 3 children between ages 2 and 10.
Ticket for each child between ages 2 - 10 is $12.59 which can be approximated to $13. So ticket price for 3 children will be 3 x 13 = $39
c) 2 children below the age of 2.
Ticket price for each child is $6.54 which can approximated as $7. So ticket price for 2 children will be 2 x 7 = $14
The estimated total amount due on the family equals = 38 + 39 + 14 = $91
In each of the 3 cases we rounded up the values. So this means the actual amount must be slightly lesser than $91. The actual bill was $87.95 which is close to $91 and lesser than it. Hence we can conclude that $87.95 is the correct amount due for Ford Family.
