Let's first find the equation to find what the population went up to. X, will be the population of last year.
1.15x=76,894
Now, we need x by itself, so we need to divide both sides by 1.15.
76,894÷1.15≈66,864
There are decimals, but for this problem, hae .3478 of a person would not fit.
We can check our answer.
66,864×.15=10,029.6
10,029.6+66,864=76,893.6 (rounds up to 76,864)
So the population of the town last year was about 66,864 (66,864.3478) people.

Answer:
<u>416 square centimeters</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula for finding area of a trapezoid :
<u>A = 1/2 x (a + b) x h</u>
- a and b = parallel sides of the trapezoid
- h = height of the trapezoid
Solving :
- A = 1/2 x (38 + 14) x 16
- A = 8 x 52
- A = <u>416 square centimeters</u>
