Answer:

the answer to this question is b.

Answer:

The correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that In a population of 1000 individuals, 100 new individuals were born and 200 individuals died over the course of 1 year.

We need to find the population growth rate of this population.

Rate of birth = [tex]\frac{100}{1000}=0.10[/tex]

Rate of death = [tex]\frac{200}{1000}=0.20[/tex]

The formula for rate of change is

Rate of change = Rate of birth - Rate of death

Rate of change = 0.10 - 0.20

Rate of change = -0.10

The required equation is 0.10 - 0.20 = -0.10.

Therefore, the correct option is B.
