Question 1071629: The population of Smalltown, in thousands, t years after 1990 can be modelled using the formula S(t) = 20(t+2)/(t+3) while the population of Little City, in thousands, t years after 1990 is L(t) = 240/(10+t). During which years, after 1990, was Smalltown larger than Little City? Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source):
