The population of leave town is 1-23,560 and is decreasing at a rate of 1.5% each
year.
a) when will the population of Leavetown drop below 47,000 Cto the nearest
year)?
b) what will the population of leavetown be years from now?

a is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

At 25 years

Step-by-step explanation:

123,000 x 2.375% = 2,921.25.  This gives you the rate that the population is decreasing.  How long will it take to get to 50,000. Do reverse operations to find this 123,000 - 50,000 = 73,000,  the population need to decrease by 73,000 to get to 50,000.  So let's multiply our rate of 2,921.25 x 25 = 73,031  and our final step..  123,000 - 73,031 = 49,969 below 50,000

the probability is 0

call the larger triangle abc

then the smaller triangle cde is similar to abc (all angles are equal, aaa).  

ab is the side that is 36, and we wish to find de, the side corresponding to ab

area_cde = area_abc - area_cde --> area_abc / area_cde = 2

let x=length of de

ratio of areas = (ratio of sides)^2
