Respuesta :

Answer:

165

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1990 there were 150 Polar Bears

The Population increased by 10%

So you must find out 10% of 150

150 - 100%

/10

15 - 10%

150 + 15 = 165

110% - 165

The population of Polar Bears in 2015 was 165

Answer: 165

Step-by-step explanation:

Year 1990 = 150 bears

%Increment in 25years(2015) = 10%

10% of 150 = 15

Therefore

In Year 2015 = 150 + %Increment

= 150 + 15

= 165
