Given that the 1997 populations of Mexico and the U.S. are 97.5 and 268 million respectively, assuming the Malthus model and the growth rates in Table 5.1, when will the populations of the two countries be equal and what will be their common size? size of a population follows an exponential growth equation, N=M e , show that in any period 1 the population is multiplied by the factor A=er(s) Using this sult, show that sutive perios hopulaton gows by the r % Ifthe size of a population follo If the size of time in k conse consecut . a) Table 5.2 shows tha 2 shows that in the 10-year period fom 1970 to 1980 the world population increased from 3.71 billi ed from 3.71 billion to 4.45 billion.

Explanation / Answer

Ans) 1) a) N0 = 57M in 1997

As table is not given

b) Let say every year growt rate is 3%

So, in 1998 the population will be N0 + (3/100)N0 = (103/100)N0 = (103/100)57M = 58.71M

S, in 2050 i.e, after 53 years will be N0 + 53(3/100)N0 = 53(103/100)N0 = 53(103/100)57M = 3111.63M
