of 5 square miles and a I
population 100,000: What is
the population density of the
city

Answer 1

The population density of the city is 20,000 persons per square mile

Step-by-step explanation:

Population density is defined as the total population living in a region divided by the total area of the region

Here

Population = 100000

Area of the city = 5 square mile

Density =
`(100000)/(5) = 20,000` people per square mile

The population density of the city is 20,000 persons per square mile
