the population increases each year

at the beginning of 1990 it was 22,317

since its asking about 1999, which is 9 years after you multiply 9x500 which equals 4,500. after that add 4,500 and 22,317

your answer is 26,817

i hope this helped :3

The population increases by 500 each year, so multiply the number of years that have passed since 1990 by 500.

1999 - 1990 = 9 years

9 years * 500 = 4,500

Add 4,500 to 22,317 inhabitants.

22,317 + 4,500 = 26,817

Your answer is B) 26,817 inhabitants.
