5. Part A: From the situation below, analyze the functions and describe how their populations change over time. How many years after year
zero" will both communities have the same population? Provide evidence
to support your answer. *
In what they call "Year Zero," a group of 50 people
started a settlement. Every year the population
changes as babies are born, people move in, and
people move out. Generally, the population
increases by an average of 3 people a year.
At the same time, a nearby established community
discovered that their population could be described
by the following function, where y is the population,
in people, and x is the time, in years, from "year
zero."
y = -6x + 239
