Problem
Instructions for creating your graph:
a) Place time on the horizontal access (X Axis). Values should range from 1650 to 2100.
b) Place number of people on the vertical access (Y Axis). Values should range from 0 to 20 billion.
c) Make sure that your graph is readable and you have the correct labels for the X and Y access and a title for your graph. You may choose to legibly hand draw your graph, or make your graph in Microsoft excel or a similar program.
d) Include an extra data point on your graph for the year of your birth.
Use your graph to estimate answers to the flowing questions:
• It took 1649 years for the world population to double, going from .25 billion people to .50 billion people. How long did it take for the population to double once again?
• How long did it take for the population to double a second time? A third time?
• Based on your graph, in what year will the population reach 8 billion?
• Based on your graph what will the population be in 2050? 2100?
The response should include a reference list. Using one-inch margins, Times New Roman 12 pnt font, double-space and APA style of writing and citations.
