The equation y? =23,480? 0.93^x estimates the population of a town x years after its largest employer shut its doors. how many residents remain living in the town 3 years after the largest employer in town closed its doors? round to the nearest whole number

chase is right because he already been to the swings and he know how far it will be to get there

step-by-step explanation:

i think it might be a but you might want a second opinion

55.44 inches

step-by-step explanation:

part a. assuming a perfectly linear relationship, we can find the slope from the first two data points.

slope = m = (change in rainfall)/(change in years)

= (61.80 -62.33)/(2005 -2004) = -0.53/1 = -0.53

then the point-slope form of the equation of the line can be written as

y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . m = -0.53, (h, k) = (0, 62.33)

y = -0.53x +62.33 . . . x = years after 2004

part b. in 2017, x = 2017 -2004 = 13. then the predicted rainfall is

y = -0.53·13 +62.33 = 55.44 . . inches

the predicted rainfall in 2017 is 55.44 in.
