Suppose that the population growth rate of a community, due to births, is 16% per year. It is known that the average number of deaths is 7000 people per year. The average number of people who migrate to other communities is 1000 people per year. a) How does the population of the community vary over time? b) Assuming that the population of the community was 190000 inhabitants at the initial moment, what was the rate of population change at that moment? c) What will be the population one year after the initial moment?

a) The population of the community will increase over time, but the rate of increase will decrease as the population approaches the carrying capacity of the environment.
b) The rate of population change at the initial moment was 16% - 7% - 1% = 8%.
c) The population one year after the initial moment will be 190000 * 1.08 = 205200.
