Answer:

x=4 and y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation 1) 3x+8y=20  

Equation 2) 5x+3y=23

Equation 1) 5(3x+8y=20 )  

Equation 2) 3(5x+3y=23)

15x+40y=100

15x+9y=69

(Take away 40y from 9y and 100 from 69)

31y = 31

y=1

Substitute y=1 into equation 1)

3x+8=20

(Take away 8 from both sides)

3x=12

(Divide by 3)

x=4

So the population in 2012
Y=600,000×(1+0.018)^(2,012−2,000)
