Answer:

1429 people per square mile.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the town of Manchester (50,000) has the shape of a rectangle that is 5 miles wide and 7 miles long. We are asked to find the population density of Manchester.

\text{Population density}=\frac{\text{Population}}{\text{Area}}

Let us find area of Manchester by multiplying 5 and 7.

\text{Area of Manchester}=5\text{ miles}\times 7\text{ miles}

\text{Area of Manchester}=35\text{ miles}^2

\text{Population density of Manchester}=\frac{50,000\text{ people}}{35\text{ miles}^2}

\text{Population density of Manchester}=\frac{1428.57\text{ people}}{\text{ miles}^2}

\text{Population density of Manchester}\approx \frac{1429\text{ people}}{\text{ miles}^2}

Therefore, the population density is approximately 1429 people per square mile.

First calculate the area of the rectangle in square miles: 

A = L x w   5 x 7 = 35 square miles 

Now divided the number of people into the area:  50,000 / 35 = 1,428.57143 

Round to nearest whole number of people:  1,429 people per square mile.

To check: 1428.57143 * 35 = 50,000
