X=94500*100/105

X=90000

Answer 2

Answer:

90,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Increase % ➡️ 5% per year.

Present population ➡️ 94,500

Let original population = population one year ago = x

94,500 = x + 5% of x = x + 5/100 x = (1+ 1/20)x =21/20 x

➡️ x = 94,500×20/21 = 4,500×20 = 90,000

Hope this helps you.
