Answer:

The approximate population of the state of California in 2010 was [tex]37,293,600\ people[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x----->the estimated population of Los Angeles in 2010

y----->the estimated population of the state of California in 2010

we know that

[tex]y=9.84x[/tex] ------> equation A

we have

[tex]x=3.79*10^{6}\ people[/tex]

Substitute the value of x in the equation A and solve for y

[tex]y=9.84(3.79*10^{6})=37.2936*10^{6}\ people[/tex]

[tex]37.2936*10^{6}=37,293,600\ people[/tex]

Answer:

3.73 × 10^7 people

Step-by-step explanation:

The original equation 3.79 × 10^6 = 3790000. 3790000× 9.84=37293600. 37293600 estimated is about 37300000. That would make 3.73 × 10^7 the expression that represents the amount of people in California.
