Village x has a population of 68000 which is decreasing at the rate of 1200 per year. Village y has a population of 42000, which is increasing at the rate of 800 per year. In how many years will the population of two villages be equal?
Step-by-step explanation: Let the number of years be x Village x: Initial population = 68000 Decrease in 1 year = 1200 Decrease in x year = 1200x Village y: Initial population = 42000 Increase in 1 year = 800 Increase in x year = 800x Solve x: When both villages have the same population 68000 - 1200x = 42000 + 800x 2000x = 26,000 x = 26000 ÷*2000 = 13 Answer: The two villages will have equal number of population in 13 years. |
