Let f(x) = 9x - 2 and g(x) = -x + 3. find f(g(
i think it's -9x-2

The population is 2017 is 291,254

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential equation will be in the form

P = I( 1 + r)^t

where P is the present population

I is the population initially at 1970

r is the annual growth percentage

t is the number of years since 1970

So for 2002, we have

r in this case will be 2002-1970 = 32

277,877 = 204,525(1 + r)^32

(1 + r)^32 = 1.3586

1 + r = 1.0096

r = 1.0096-1

r = 0.0096

So the growth percentage is 0.96% annually

So the population in 2017 where t will be 2017-1970 = 37 will be

P = 204,525(1 + 0.0096)^37

P = 204,525(1.0096)^37

P = 291,254
