(07.02) Brennan has been playing a game where he can create towns and help his empire expand. Each town he has allows him to create 1.15 times as many villagers as he
had in the one before. The game gave Brennan 5 villagers to start with. Explain to Brennan how to create an equation to predict the number of villagers in any specific
town. Then show how to use your equation to solve for the number of villagers he can create to live in the 15th town.

step-by-step explanation: given equation a = h(b 1+b 2)

also we are given values of a, h and b 1 as :

a = 16, h = 4, and b 1 = 3.

in order to solve it for b 2, we need to plug the given values of   a, h and b 1 .

therefore, plugging values of   a, h and b 1   in given equation, we get

16 = 4( 3 + b 2)

first dividing both sides by 4, we get

4 = 3 + b 2

subtracting 3 from both sides, we get

4 -3 = 3 -3 + b 2

1 = b 2.

they charge the same amount at 20 minutes.
