The population of Maricopa County has been increasing for the past few decades. In 2016, the Maricopa County population is approximately 3.817 million. Of the population increases from the current population by 3.89 % over the next 5 years, what will the population be in 2021

3,965,481

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  In 2016, the Maricopa County population is approximately 3.817 million.

i.e. Initial population= 3.817 million =3,817,000

Of the population increases from the current population by 3.89 % over the next 5 years,

Population increased = 3.89% of 3,817,000

= 0.0389 (3817000)

= 148481.3 ≈ 148481

Population in 2021= 3,817,000 +148,481 =3,965,481

Hence, the population in 2021 =  3,965,481

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume

number of candles set =x

price of of x candles =p(x)

we are given

a candle maker prices one set of scented candles at $10 and sells an average of 200 sets each week

so, we get point as (200,10)

he finds that when he reduces the price by $1, he then sells 50 more candle sets each week

so, we can find slope

now, we can use point slope form of line

now, we can plug values

we can use point

and find b

now, we can plug it back

and we get

now, we can find revenue

we know that

revenue = price*quantity

so, we get
