Apopulation of cheetahs has a birth rate of 5 and a death rate of 15. immigration is 2, and emigration is 4. what is its population growth? a. –14 b. –12 c. 12 d. 14

The correct answer is B. 12.

The difference between the death rate plus the birth rate is 15-5 = 10.

The difference of emigration from immigration is 4 - 2 = 2.

Therefore to get the population of cheetahs we add what we get in the birth rate and death rate plus emigration and immigration.

which is 10 + 2 = 12.

The population for cheetahs is 12.

The answer would most likely be -12. Does this help?
