Explanation Given information: At the beginning of 1998 , the population of the Unites States was 268 , 924 , 000 people and growing at the rate of 1 , 856 , 000 people per year. The annual per capita consumption of ice-cream in the United States was 12 , 582 , 000 pints and growing at the rate of 212 millions pints per year. Explanation: [ annual per capita consumption ] = [ annual consumption ] [ population ] Let C= Annual per capita consumption, P = population and A = Annual consumption. C = A P The population of the United States was 268 , 924 , 000 people which is the same as 268.924 million people and growing at the rate of 1 , 856 , 000 people per year which is the same as 1.856 million people per year. The annual per capita consumption of ice-cream in the United States was 12 , 582 , 000 pints which is the same as 12.582 millions pints and growing at the rate of 212 millions pints per year. Thus, P = 268.924 , d P d t = 1.856 , A = 12
