Question

34. Social Studies In 1990, the population of Cheyenne, Wyoming, was 73,142. By 2000, the population had increased to 81,607. Write and solve an equation to find n, the increase in Cheyenne's population from 1990 to 2000.

Answer 1

ok

Po = 73142

P = 81607

t = 10 years

P = Pon^t

81607 = 73142*n^10

81607/73142 = n^10

1.102 = n^10

n = 1.0098
