Town A has a population of 500 people, while Town B has a population of 1200.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Town A has a population growth rate of 4% per year. Town B’s annual growth rate is 1.75%.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "When will the populations be the same? What will their populations be when they are the same? \n" ); document.write( "================== \n" ); document.write( "Population of town A: PA = 500 + 0.04t ---- t in years \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "Write a similar equation for town B. PB = **************** \n" ); document.write( "Then, PA = PB, solve for t. \n" ); document.write( "Then solve for PA & PB.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
