Part 2 15. A small town has a population of 20,510 and an area of 86.8 square miles. To the nearest tenth, what is the population
density as measured by the value "people per square mile?
A. O 2.72
B. O 236.3
C. 2,201,4
D. 55,833.1

B. 236.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Population density can be found by dividing the number of people by the area of the land.

number of people / land area

The population is 20,510 people and the area is 86.8 square miles.

20,510 people / 86.8 square miles

Divide 20,510 by 86.8

236.290323 people /square mile

Round to the nearest tenth. The 9 in the hundredth place tell us to round the 2 to a 3 in the tenth place.

236.3 people/ square mile

There are 236.3 people per square mile and B is correct.

there are 70 more legs than eyes at the dog show (196 – 126 = 70). dogs have two more legs than eyes, and humans have the same number of legs as eyes. thus 70 is twice the number of dogs at the show, so the number of dogs is half of 70, which is 35. to get the number of humans, subtract 35 from 63: 63 – 35 = 28.
