Chapter 8.4, Problem 20STP

To determine

To calculate: To find in which decades the population change was least.

Answer to Problem 20STP

The population change is least in decade $\text{'}00$

Explanation of Solution

Given information: Graph is

  

Calculation:

Graph is given as follows:

  

In decade $\text{'}80$

Change in population $=5500-4500=1000$

In decade $\text{'}90$

Change in population $=6500-5500=1000$

In decadey $\text{'}00$

Change in population1 $=7000-6500=500$

In decade $\text{'}10$

Change in population $=9000-7000=2000$

Thus, the population change is least in decade $\text{'}00$

Conclusion:

Hence, the population change is least in decade $\text{'}00$
