Question

In 2007 the US population was 302 million people in 2012 it was 314 million what was the rate of population change per year?

Answer 1

Answer:

2.4 million

Step-by-step explanation:

So first find the difference between the years:

2012 - 2007 = 5

5 year difference

314 - 302 = 12

5 years = + 12 million people

Then you do:

12 / 5 = 2.4

Since we're working in millions, that would be 2.4 million
