The more people living in an area, the more likely it is that public buses will be used. City A has a population of 51,242 and covers an area of 89.22 mi2. City B has a population of 50,178 and covers an area of 8.12 mi2.

Respuesta :

city b is the answer

Answer:

Public bus must be used for city-B

Step-by-step explanation:

City-A:

total population =51,242

area =89.22 mi^2

we can find population density

population density=( total  population)/(total area)

[tex]D=\frac{51242}{89.22}[/tex]

[tex]D=574.3331[/tex]

Population density =574.3331

City-B:

total population =50178

area =8.12 mi^2

we can find population density

population density=( total  population)/(total area)

[tex]D=\frac{50178}{8.12}[/tex]

[tex]D=6179.55665[/tex]

Population density =6179.55665

Since, the population density of city-B is greater

so, public bus must be used for city-B
