Population of Egypt in 2005 is 72.64 million.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have ,The estimated population of Egypt in 2011 is about 81 million. this is a 1.8% growth rate over the previous year. According to question , population in year 2010 = population in year 2011 - 1.8% of population in year 2011 i.e.
population in year 2010 = [tex]81 - \frac{81(1.8)}{100}[/tex] = 79.52 million
Similarly, population in year 2009 = [tex]79.52 - \frac{79.52(1.8)}{100}[/tex] = 78.10 million
population in year 2008 = [tex]78.10 - \frac{78.10(1.8)}{100}[/tex] = 76.70 million
population in year 2007 = [tex]76.70 - \frac{76.70(1.8)}{100}[/tex] = 75.32 million
population in year 2006 = [tex]75.32 - \frac{75.32(1.8)}{100}[/tex] = 73.97 million
population in year 2005 = [tex]73.97 - \frac{73.97(1.8)}{100}[/tex] = 72.64 million
Therefore, population of Egypt in 2005 is 72.64 million.
