A small country had a population of 2,254,000 people in the year 2012. If the population grows steadily at a rate of 3.5% each year, what is the expected population of this country in the year 2020?

Step-by-step explanation:

year 2012 population = 2,254,000*3.5%

= 78.89

each year up to 2020

so 2020 - 2012 =8

78.89*8 = 631

total population at end of 2020 =2,254,000 + 631

= 2,254631

option 1 is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

y varies inversely with x and constant of variation is 4

the equation will be:

y = k/x

where k =4 so,

y = 4/x

if we put values of x of option 1 in the above equation and find values of y

y = 4/-2 => y =-2

y = 4/-1 => y = -4

y = 4/1 => y = 4

y = 4/2 => y =2

so, all the values of x and y are correct.

if we put values of x given in other options and find value of y we cannot find whole table satisfying the equation.

hence option 1 is correct.
