In the first year, the population of a village Increased by 5% and in the next year it decreased by 5%If at the end of the second year, the population was 79,800, what was i at the beginning of the first year
Answers
Answer:
Friction is the force resisting the relative motion of solid surfaces, fluid layers, and material elements sliding against each other.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
5% increased in the first year
5% decreased in the second year
final population = 79800
To find,
The amount of initial population.
Solution,
We can simply solve this mathematical problem by using the following mathematical process.
Let, the initial population = x
(Assume x as a variable to do the further mathematical calculations.)
Now, population after first year = x + (x×5/100) = x + x/20 = 21x/20
Population after second year = 21x/20 - (21x/20 × 5/100) =21x/20 - 21x/400 = 420x-21x/400 = 399x/400
According to the data mentioned in the question,
399x/400 = 79800
x = 79800 × 400/399
x = 80000
Hence, the Initial population was 80000
