Changes 8. In 1994, the city of Amuel had a population of 1,256 people. That same year a factory opened near the town, and many people moved into the city limits. The population grew to 1,381 people in
1995, and in 1996 the population of Amuel reached 1,519 people. Assume this rate of growth continued until the factory closed in 2007. How many people were living in Amuel when the factory
closed? Explain. Round to the nearest whole number, if needed.

answer: the is put the 450

step-by-step explanation:

answer: integers are just whole numbers: positive, negative, and zero.

i = {-∞, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ∞}

let x = 1st integer

let y = 2nd integer

x = 3y + 17   {equation 1}

xy = -24         {equation 2}

substitute 3y+17 in place of x n equation 2

and solve for y.

(3y+17)y = -24

3y2 + 17y = -24

3y2 + 17y + 24 = 0

from quadratic equation:

y = [-17±√(172-4(3)(24))]/(2(3))

y = (-17 ±√1)/6

y = (-17+1)/6   or     y = (-17-1)/6

y = -16/6           or     y = -18/6

y = -2 2/3         or   y = -3

since we are dealing with

y = -3

x = 3y+17 = -9+17 = 8

the integers are -3, 8
