Question

electronics do not have any phones, ipods, ipads out and in use during class time unless it is for approved school use. if i see or hear any of these devices, you will 1) be warned and asked to remove 2) they will be confiscated immediately and returned after class or school. if refusal to hand over devise, administrative action will follow.
inappropriate use of devices disturbs learning!!

1. check over your completed work before turning in
2. complete any late, past due make up work
3. complete work from another class or read a book only if you currently have an \a\ grade in class.

group work i am not the only teacher in the room. we need to learn from each other– content and skills, and we need to be respectful of each others learning styles. your future depends on your ability to work well with others– seriously!! you will be required to work in pairs, small groups daily
part d washington dc—population—total & by race

1. when and what # did dc population peak? what is today’s total population?
2. discuss the racial changes over the years. explain the changes. compare 1940 & 1970– wow!!
3. predict and justify future changes to dc population in 10 years, 50 years and 200 years....

Explanation:

Sub - Question 1

Step 1: Analyze the graph for peak

Look at the "Total Population" line in the graph. Find the highest point on this line. From the graph, the peak occurs around 1950 (or 1940 - 1960 range, more precisely around 1950) with a population of around 800,000 (since the y - axis is in thousands).

Step 2: Determine today's population

Today (assuming recent data, from the graph's end around 2000, and recent estimates, but from the graph, the total population around 2000 is around 600,000 (since the y - axis is in thousands, so 600 thousand or 600,000).

• Racial changes over years: Initially (pre - 1900), White population was dominant. From 1900 - 1950, White population grew, then declined after 1950. Black population grew steadily, peaking around 1970 - 1980, then declined. Hispanic and "All Others" populations had slow growth initially, then more growth later.
• 1940 vs 1970: In 1940, White population was higher than Black. By 1970, Black population surpassed White. This change could be due to migration (Black Americans moving to DC for jobs, White flight to suburbs, etc.).

• 10 years: Population may increase slightly. DC is an urban center with jobs, so migration could continue, but growth rate may be moderate. Justification: Economic opportunities in DC (government, tech, etc.) attract people.
• 50 years: Population may stabilize or have moderate growth. Urban development, policy changes, and regional growth trends will impact. Justification: Long - term urban planning, job market stability, and demographic trends (aging, new families) will balance growth.
• 200 years: Harder to predict, but if DC remains a political and economic hub, population could grow with urban expansion. If climate change or economic shifts occur, population could change. Justification: Historical role of DC as a capital, potential for continued economic and political importance, but external factors (climate, technology) could alter trends.

Answer:

The DC population peaked around 1950 (or 1940 - 1960) with a population of approximately 800,000 (800 thousand). Today's (around 2000 and recent) total population is approximately 600,000 (600 thousand).
