The population of a city has increased by 35% since it was last measured. if the current population is 83,700 , what was the previous population?

the previous population was 62,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

The current population of a city = 83,700

The population of a city has increased by 35% since it was last measured.

We have to calculate the previous population before increasing 35%.

Let the previous population be p

p +(35% × p) = 83,700

p + 0.35p = 83,700

1.35p = 83,700

p =

p = 62,000

Therefore, the previous population was 62,000.

y = x + 95

y = 42 + 95

y=137 mm hg

9 x 8 divided by (5-3)=36
