The answer is B. 22 percentage points
The exponential equation used to represent the population of the town is given by y = 5655(1.026)ˣ
An exponential function is in the form:
y = abˣ
where y, x are variables, a is the initial value of y and b is the multiplier.
Let y represent the population remaining after x years.
The population grow at the rate of 2.6% annually. Hence:
b = 100% + 2.6% = 1.026
There are initially 5655 people, hence a = 5655.
The equation becomes:
y = 5655(1.026)ˣ

Answer:
1 - 0.3 <em>(3/10)</em>
2 - 1.1 <em>(11/10)</em>
3 - 2.2 <em>(11/5)</em>
For 3/5 (divide) 1/2, the answer is 1.2
Step-by-step-explanation:
3/5 = 0.6
1/2 = 0.5
0.6 / 0.5 = 1.2
