Answer:
28.1%
Step-by-step explanation:
Population increased by (561000-438000)=123000
rate of increase
= (123000/438000)*100
=28.08
=28.1
First term: a1 = 151
common difference: d = -14 (we decrease by 14 each time, eg, 151-14 = 137)
nth term of this arithmetic sequence is...
an = a1+d(n-1)
an = 151+(-14)(n-1)
an = 151-14n+14
an = -14n+165
This will be used in the formula below
Sn = n*(a1+an)/2
<span>Sn = n*(151+(-14n+165))/2
</span><span>S26 = 26*(151+(-14*26+165))/2 ... replace every n with 26
</span>S26 = -624
The final answer here is choice C) -624

You would set it up like this: 150x + 280 = 255x The you just solve.
The solution would be: a = 3/4
