Answer :
Answer: 1.75p
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 'p' represents the current population.
The increase in the population of the city =7.5%
Therefore, the expected population next year= Current population+75% of the current population
[tex]=p+75\%\ of\ p\ \\=p+0.75p....\text{[convert percent into decimal]}\\=p(1+0.75).........\text{[take p as common outside]}\\=p(1.75)=1.75p[/tex]
Hence, the expected population next year= 1.75p
