Question

which of the following is the formula for a decreasing population growth rate?
rate=(b + i)+(d + e)
rate=(b + i)x(d + e)
rate=(b + i)>(d + e)
rate=(b + i)<(d + e)

Explanation:

Population growth rate is based on births (b), immigration (i), deaths (d) and emigration (e). A decreasing population growth rate occurs when the number of births and immigrants is less than the number of deaths and emigrants.

Answer:

Rate= (b + i)<(d + e)
