Answer 1

$ᴀɴꜱᴡᴇʀ ❣$

Town Population increased = 1200

New population Increased = 11%

Less people = 32

Current Population = 13,168

Answer 2

ANSWER

Let the population be P.

So, the increased population will be P+1200.

The population after 11% decrease in population becomes P−32.

Therefore,

P−32=(P+1200)−

11/100 (P+1200)

P=10000

So, the total population is 10000.
