Question

1. describe the relationship between the population in an area and the amount of water available.

what type of relationship is this?

Explanation:

As the population in an area increases, the demand for water rises. If water - sources are limited, the amount of water available per person decreases. This is an inverse relationship when considering water availability per capita. Overall, higher population generally means more pressure on water resources.

Answer:

As the population in an area increases, the amount of water available per person generally decreases (assuming limited water - sources). This is an inverse relationship.
