The population of a town is 24,721 and declines continuously at a rate of 2.9% each year. What is the approximate population of the town in 12 years? (5 points) 16,118

17,366

17,455

35,011

The starting population of the town is 24,721 and it's population growth rate is -2.9% per year (negative because it's declining, not growing).

Since the town loses 2.9% of its population per year, find what 2.9% of the town is and then multiply it by 12. Subtract that from the starting population to get your final answer.

So...

24,721 × 2.9% = 716.909 ≈ 717 people per year

717 × 12 = 8,604

24,721 - 8,604 = 16,117

a. 16,118

step-by-step explanation:

i think it would be 43 movies that would have to be watched.

step-by-step explanation:

think about it. for the second plan, every month is 8 dollars. 8 x 12= 96. so thats the number for the second plan. now for the first plan, its annual meaning you have to pay 10 dollars every year. so now you have to get an equivalent amount of 86 since 96-10=86. 86 divided by 2 since every movie costs 2$ then you would have to watch 43 movies a year to get the same as the second plan. i really hoped this . have a wonderful day as well!
