577,000, there is an average change of 577,000 people per year.
To find the average rate of change of the population of people per year, we first need to find the population change per any amount of time, and then divide by how much time that is (in this case, three years). We can find the population change by <u>subtracting </u>the values 17,334,000 and 19,065,000. Subtracting them, we get a change of 1,731,000 in three years. Now, to find the average rate of change of the population in people per year, we divide by three, which gives us our answer of 577,000 people, on average, per year.
The answer is three significant figures. The 1 and the 7 are both significant, because they are non-zero quantities.
This is where significant figures gets a little more complicated, because if a zero is used as a placeholder (i.e. 0.00027 cm) then it is insignificant.
But in the case above, the zero isn't being used as a placeholder, and thus, is significant.
B. 17.16 represents a credit of $17.16; "credits" mean that you're receiving something, so it's added. A is incorrect because it shows the money being taken away and that isn't what a credit does. C and D aren't even the same amount of money in the question, so they aren't your answer either.
