Answer:

1st answer: 61000+(X-1) x 700

2nd answer: 64500

Explanation:

Since it says the population increases linearly, which means by the same amount, it is an arithmetic progression. So the formula to find a term in arithmetic progression is
T_(n)=a + ( n - 1 ) x d , where a is the first term, n is number of terms, and d is common difference. So now just put the values in the equation, where 61000 is a, x is n and d is 700. To find second answer put 6 in place of n as it says from 2003 to 2009 which is 6 years later.
