Let t=number of years since 1991.
Then
P(t)=147 e^(kt) ... in millions
P(0)=147 e^(0)=147
P(7)=147 e^(7k)=153
e^(7k)=(153/147)
take ln both sides
ln(e^(7k))=ln(153/147)
7k=0.0400 => k=0.005715
Year 2017=>t=2017-1991=26
P(26)=147e^(26*.005715)=170.55
Answer: in 2017, the projected population is 170.55 millions.
Answer:
A. 0
B. -66
C. 4
D. 998
E. -12
Step-by-step explanation:
A. By definition, the sum of anything and its additive inverse is zero.
__
B. If you have trouble with sums, your calculator can help.
-22 + (-44) = -22 -44 = -66

C. -36/x = -9 can be solved by multiplying by x and dividing by -9:
-36 = -9x
-36/-9 = x = 4
Since the product of the divisor and quotient is the dividend, dividing the dividend by either gives the other. Here, your dividend is -36 and your quotient is -9. To find the divisor, you can divide -36 by -9, as we did.
__
D. The absolute value function changes the sign of negative numbers to positive:
|-998| = 998

E. If you have trouble with sums, your calculator can help.
(−2)−[(−3)−(−7)−(−6)]
= -2 -(-3 +7 +6) = -2 -10 = -12
Answer:
