The answer is 532 full your welcome yay fun
The answer is 31,500.
Let's clarify some things :
1% of 45,000 is 450
Maybe you're wondering why , it's actually very simple .
Just move the decimal to the left once if you want to find 10% , move the decimal twice if you want to find 1%.
We now that 1% equals 450. Then 2% equals to....
Well just add another 1% .
450 + 450 or 450 times 2
Which equals 900.
Now we want to find what's the population after 15 years.
900 times 15= 13,500
But that's not the answer ....
That's what is decreasing.
45,000 - 13,500= 31,500
That's why the answer is 31,500.
Answer:
5.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem we can use a modified version of the simple interest formula which is shown below:

<em>I = interest amount</em>
<em>P = principal amount</em>
<em>t = time (years)</em>
<em />
The first step is to find the interest gained from the investment.

Next, plug in the values into the equation:
Multiply the bottom values
Divide the values

The last step is to convert 0.055 into a percent:

The interest rate is 5.5%
So 3+1=4 then you do the half you know 2 hlafs=whole so thats 1 and 4+1=5
5 is the answer
