What is rate of increase?

Rate of increase or decrease is defined as the increment or decrement in any quantity over a period of time constantly.

Here we have the data that:

There were 1500 birds in 2000 and they are decreasing at an annual rate of 6.5%.

a) If this trend continues, how many birds will be left by 2010

{1500x6.25}/{100}=97.5

So the bird decrement in the one year will be =97.5 so it will be in the 10 years or upto 2010 will be

97.5x10=975

So the birds left till 2010 will be:

Q=1500-975=525

b)The birds would there have been in 1990 will be:-

=1500+975=2475
