Show Answer

Correct Answer: (1)

Solution: (1)

New population in the year 2013 :

Town $A \Rightarrow 80000 \times \frac{60}{100} \times \frac{120}{100} + 80000 \times \frac{40}{100} \times \frac{115}{100}$ $= 57600 + 36800 = 94400$

Town $B \Rightarrow 75000 \times \frac{2}{3} \times \frac{120}{100} + 75000 \times \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{115}{100}$ $= 60000 + 28750 = 88750$

Required answer $= 94400 + 88750 = 183150$
