Respuesta :

We are given the population and the area of the city and asked to calculate the population density.

Recall that the population density is the calculation that consists of dividing the population by the area. Then, in this case it would be

[tex]\frac{2.8\text{ million}}{320\text{ square miles}}=\frac{2800000}{320}=8750[/tex]

Then, the population density is 8750 habitants per square mile
