Main

5. Actual change = (Births + Immigration) - (Deaths + Emigration)
6.4.3 Express the actual change in population in mathematical terms. (a)
Actual change = (Births + Immigration) - (Deaths + Emigration)
Births: Deaths: 12000
Immigration: 1200 Emigration: 500
Actual change = ( ) – ( )
Actual change = (16200 – 12500)
Actual change = 3700
The population grew by 3700 people.
