Answer:

242, 900 people

Step-by-step explanation:

To begin, it says that the population grew by 5%.

(241000)(1.00 + 0.05) = <em>population of the city in 2015</em>

(241000)(1.05) = 253050

253050 is the population of the city in 2015. From 2015 to 2020 it fell four percent.

(253050)(1.00 - 0.04) = <em>population of the city in 2020</em>

(253050)(0.96) = 242928

242928 is the exact population of the city. However, it says to round to the nearest hundred. Since 28 is less than 50, then it would round down to 900.

Therefore, the answer would be 242, 900 people.

dexar [7]

Answer: 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of triangle = (0.5) × base(b) × height(h)

Base of triangle = 8

Height of triangle = 15

Area of triangle = (0.5) × 8 × 15 = 60

Volume of triangular prism = B × height

Where h = height

B = area of triangle

Volume of triangular prism = 1080

Find the height(h) of the triangular prism

Volume of triangular prism = B × height

1080 = 60 × h

h = 1080 / 60

h = 18

First, determine the effective interests given both interest rates.

(1)   ieff = (1 + 0.068/12)^12 - 1 = 0.07016
(2)   ieff = (1 + 0.078/12)^12 - 1 = 0.08085

Calculating the interests will entail us to use the equation,
     I = P ((1 + i)^n - 1)

Substituting the known values,
  (1)    I = ($5125)((1 + 0.07016)^1/2 - 1)
          I = $176.737

   (2)    I = ($5125)(1 + 0.08085)^1/2 - 1)
            I = $203.15

a. Hence, the greater interest will be that of the second loan. 

b. The difference between the interests,
    d = $203.15 - $176.737
          $26.413

How to set up this problem
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

The son is five years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the son's age be x

A man is five as old as his son, 5x

In five years, he would be three times as old as his son

In five years: son would be x+5

Father 5x+5

3(x+5)=5x+5

3x+15=5x+5

Collect like terms

15-5=5x-3x

10=2x

Divide by 2

10/2=2x/2

x=5

The son is five years old
