the population of a town is 20,000 . If the annual death rate is 2% and annual birth rate is 4%. Calculate the population of the town after 2 years?
Answers
Given that,
Population of a town, P = 20000
Annual death rate = 2 %
Annual birth rate = 4 %
It implies, Annual growth rate of population, r = 2 %
Time period, n = 2 years
We know,
Population ( P' ) of the town after n years which increased at the rate of r % per annum having initial population P is given by
So, on substituting the values, we get
So, it means, population of town after 2 years is 20808.

Answer:
Given :-
- The population of a town is 20000.
- The annual death rate is 2%.
- Annual birth rate is 4%.
To Find :-
- What is the population of the town after 2 years.
Formula Used :-
where,
- P = Present Population
- r = Total rate of population
- n = Number of years
Solution :-
First, we have to find the total rate of population:
Given :
- Annual Birth Rate = 4%
- Annual Death Rate = 2%
Hence,
Hence, the total rate of population is 2% .
Now, we have to find the population of town after 2 years :
Given :
- Present population of town = 20000
- Total rate of population = 2%
- Number of years = 2 years
According to the question by using the formula we get,
The population of the town after 2 years is 20808 .
