In 2010, a city population was 55,210 and it was declining at a rate of 1.09 each year. what is the best prediction for when the city population will first be below 48,000?
2019
2022
2025
2028

48000=55210(1-0.0109)^t

Solve for t

t=12.77 =13 years

2010+13=2023

So the answer is c

➷ The multiplier would be (1 - 0.0109)

Just use trial and error to work out the number of years:

55,210 x (1 - 0.0109)^9 = 50024.13

55210 x (1 - 0.0109)^12 = 48406.10

55210 x (1 - 0.0109)^15 = 46840.41

As you can see, the third option would be the first time it is below 48000. Therefore, it would be option C

➶ Good Luck (:

this is a very good question

step-by-step explanation:

i got a hair cut today from my mom not to flex just to flex kim jon un is one rad fellow i'd say you'd need to take the hairline in kinda like a box shape like someone rammed a lego brick into your head. from there you really need to take the top up keeping with that boxy aesthetic, finally coat the whole thing with gel if your country economics are failing or whatever you can just coat it with the starving children's food rations. about 5 orphans per strand is a good ratio. good luck with the fresh cut my dude
