Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
-1+8=7
Answer:
61
Step-by-step explanation:
add the number of minutes for each day and then divide that number by the number of days


Let's break this up:
let x = the number
"when I triple my number" is the same as
3x
"and add five" is the same as
+5
We combine it to get
3x+5
"I get twenty-six"
=26
combine to get
3x+5=26
Now we just solve:
subtract 5 from both sides to get
3x=21
divide by 3 to get
x=7
The answer is 138 million.
Step 1. Calculate the growth rate.
Step 2. Calculate the population number in 2014.
We will use the formula for exponential growth:
A = P * eⁿˣ
where:
A - the final amount (value)
P - the initial amount (value)
e - the mathematical constant (e ≈ 2.72)
n - the growth rate
x - the time
Step 1:
A = 120 million = 120 000 000
P = 114 million = 114 000 000
n = ?
x = 1997 - 1991 = 6
Therefore:

Logarithm both sides of the equation:

Step 2:
Now when we know the growth rate, it is easy to estimate the population in 2014
A = ?
P = 120 000 000
n = 0.0083
t = 2014 - 1997 = 17

Thus, the population will be 138 million in 2014
