In 2003, the population of an African country was about 19.5 million people, which is 2 million more than 5 times the population in 1950. Enter and solve an equation to find the approximate population p (in millions) in 1950.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent 1950 Population with P and 2003 Population with Q

Required

Determine the value of P

From the question; we have that

Substitute 19.5 million for Q

Subtract 2 million from both sides

Divide both sides by 5

Hence, the 1950 population is 3.5 million

the answer is b.

step-by-step explanation:

by the trigonometric ratio tangent, tangent equals opposite divided by adjacent.

therefore, tan(50) equals ac/3

multiply each side by 3 to get: ac=3tan(50)

the answer is b.
