first what quantities do we need to talk about?

the problem speaks of “a number”, let’s call that number x.

now write the equation that relates x to the other numbers we know.

the first clue is the word “difference”.

this means “subtraction”, but we need to subtract something from something else.

what are the two somethings? ”a number times 7” and “4”.

so, since we have a name for “a number”, let’s translate this as x*7 - 4 what else do we know?

it says the difference is 9. So complete the equation x*7 - 4 = 9 if we rewrite this cosmetically, 7x - 4 = 9

i assume that you know how to solve this for x.

so then wehn solving 7x - 4 =9 we take -4 change it to +4 so then +9 we go and get 13

7x = 13

7/7 = 13/7

x=  13/7

A population is growing continuously at a rate of 5%. If the population is now 3400, what will it be in 17 years? Round to the n
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

In 17 years time, the initial population of 3400, and growing at a rate of 5% will be ≈ 7792

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have that the formula for population presented as follows;

A = P(1+r)^t

Where:

A = Population after growth

P = Original population = 3400

r = 5% = 0.05

t = Time = 17 years

Population growing at a rate of 5% is thus given by the plugging in the above values into the population growth formula thus;

A = 3400 \times (1+0.05)^{17} = 7792.86

Since we are presenting data relating to number of people, we round alwys down as the statistics should represent the number of whole people on ground.

Therefore, in 17 years time, the initial population of 3400, and growing at a rate of 5% will be ≈ 7792.
