On opposite sides of a major city two suburban towns are experiencing population changes. one town, town a, is growing rapidly at 5% per year and has a current population of 39,000. town b has a declining population at a rate of 2% per year. its current population is 55,000. economists predict that in 5 years the populations of these two towns will be about the same, but the residents of both towns are in disbelief. the economists also claim that ten years after that, town a will double the size of town b. can you verify the predictions based on the data given? do you think these predictions will come true?

i say b hope this jdjdjdj

the system of inequity is

step-by-step explanation:

from the given graph it is noticed that we have two related lines. one is solid and another is dashed.

if a line passing through two points, then the equation of line is

the solid line passing through the points (0,4) and (4,0).

the related equation of solid line is .

similarly, find the related equation of dashed line. the dashed liune passing through the points (0,0) and (3,1).

the related equation of dashed line is

from the given graph it is noticed that the point (0,1) lies on the shaded region, therefore the point (0,1) must be satisfied by the related equations.

check the related equations by the point (0,1).

this statement is true if the sign of inequality is < instead of equality. since it is an solid line therefore the sign of inequality will be . the required inequality is

similarly, check the second related equation.

it is a dashed line, so this statement is true if the sign of inequality is > . the required inequality is
