You have to find the equation that would fit the situation which would be 57,000+800x= population. Then the difference in the years from the year you are trying to figure out to 1980 is plugged in for x. so you would do 2015-1980=35 you would then plug in 35 of x in the equation. 57,000+800(35)=85,000.

1. you would take 36×1/4 and then it would equal 9

2. you would take 24×1/4 and then it would equal 6

In 2015, the population of a small town in Florida is 95. If he population increases 15% every year, approximately what will the

vova2212 [387]

The population is increasing every year. so we use exponential growth function

$y=a(1+r)^x$

Where 'a' is the initial population

r is the rate of increase

x is the years

y is the final population

In 2015, the population of a small town in Florida is 95

Initial population a= 95

r= 15%= 0.15

x = 2023 - 2015 = 8 years

Plug in all the values and find out y

$y=a(1+r)^x$

$y=95(1+0.15)^8$

y = 290.607

The population in 2023 is 291
