- The world population in 2017 was 7.5 billion, and its annual growth rate was 1.2%. If the birth rate was over 20 per 1,000 people in the year of 2017, what was the death rate, expressed as number per 1,000 people?arrow_forwardExpress the logistic population growth by equation.arrow_forwardThe per capita birth (b) and death (d) rates are measured for two populations across a range of population sizes in the attached figure. The equation for exponential growth rate is dN/dt=rN where the per capita growth rate is r=(b-d). The equation for logistic population growth rate is dN/dt=rN(1-N/K). With logistic growth, r varies as a function of the population size with density-dependent birth and/or death rates.
