In 2016, Alberta had about 4.2 million people.
Assuming they follow the same population
growth rate, it is predicted they will have 6.65
million people in 20 years. At what rate is the
province's population growing?

Respuesta :

the population of province is growing at the rate of 2.91%

What is the formula of the rate of growth of a population?

the formula of the rate of growth of a population =

[(future population- initial population/initial population)*100]/time

population in 2016 = 4.2 milllion = 4200000

Population predicted in 20 years = 6.65 million = 6650000

so, initial population = 4200000

future population = 6650000

rate of growth = {(6650000- 4200000/4200000)*100]/20

                       = 58.33/20

                     = 2.91%

the population is growing at the rate of 2.91%
