Atown has a population of 12000 and grows at 3.5% every year. what will be the population after 7 years, to the nearest whole number?

it is not 15268, (tried it myself and got it incorrect) it showed me that the actual answer is y = 15267 because u have to round it.

After 7 years the population will be 15268.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a town has a population of 12000 and grows at 3.5% every year. we have to find the population after 7 years.

As the general growth formula is

where A = Amount after growth

           P = Original amount

           r = yearly growth rate

           t = no. of years

here, P=12000, r=0.035, t=7

         =

        =

Hence, after 7 years the population will be 15268.

step-by-step explanation:

walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies but no more than 40. 5 ≥ x ≥ 40;

step-by-step explanation:

walter has to make a minimum of 20 cookies. he already has 15 cookies made, so he must make 5 more to meet the minimum.

the maximum amount of cookies he can make is 55. he already has 15, so he has to make no more than 40 more cookies to meet the maximum.
