Answer:
y=-5x
Step-by-step explanation:
this is because slope intercept form is y=mx+b
if m= -5 and b=0 the answer would be
y=-5x+0
simplified it would be
y=-5x
The answer is 873 hope this will help you.
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.
