Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:The number of views on video after 2 hrs is  77, 740.Step-by-step explanation:The current number of likes on the video =  46,000The rate of increasing likes per hour = 30% Now, the increase of likes in the next hour = 30% of 46,00030% of 46,000[tex]\frac{30}{100} \times 46,000 = 13,800[/tex]So, the number of likes increased in 1 hour =  13,800⇒Number of likes after 1 hour = Current likes + increased amount in 1 hr                                                   = 46,000 + 13,800 = 59,800Now, the number of likes increased in 2nd hour = 30% of 59,800⇒ 30% of 59,800[tex]\frac{30}{100} \times 59,800 = 17,940[/tex]So, the number of likes increased in 2nd  hour =  17,940⇒Number of likes after 2 hour = Current likes + increased views in 2 hr                                                      = 59,800  + 17,940 = 77,740Hence, the number of views on video after 2 hrs is 77,740.
