Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Increase in population =510,000 - 430,000 = 80,000
Percentage increase = [tex]\frac{80,000}{430,000}*100[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{800}{43}[/tex]
= 18.6 %
b) Percentage increase = 17.3%
Increase in population = 17.3% * 510,000
= 0.173 * 510,000
= 88,230
Predicted population in 2021 = 510,000 + 88,230
= 598,230
