To solve for the Average Growth Rate, we use the formula P/t, which is the change of population divided by change of time. To get the Relative Growth Rate, we use the formula P/t/P, which is after dividing change of population by change of time, we divide the quotient to the population on that year. To solve for k, we get the average of the relative growth rates.

To solve for the projected population for each year, we used the formula P=Pokt. Po is the actual population which is 39,013; k is the average of the relative growth rate which is 0.04037; and t is the time which depends on what year you are computing.
Significance of Study
This study would help the local officials to be alert and prepared for future plans or actions to be imposed for the progress of the city. This will help the city council to ready the human, natural and physical resources needed for the growing population ten years from now. Using this study, we can anticipate the future essential necessities needed to sustain my citizens. It is a critical mathematical study where a citys progress can be attained.
Detailed Plan of Action In Response to the Findings and Recommendations to Address Housing, Employment and Food Security for the Projected Population in 2011
Population is the total number of inhabitants constituting a particular race in a specified area. All our lives we have heard of many things about population growth, birth rates, death decreases and so on with other things. In our society today, population is placed in danger if the growth of it is not prevented. In Quezon City, based on our findings, it is said that their population is growing beyond the projected population. What plans should the people in Quezon City take? We came up of some plans that we can follow and if we unite as one, we can prevent any problem that might occur. There are so many ways to prevent the population in order to provide housing, employment and food security equally in Quezon City, but our group came up of three major plans to take and these are: Spread awareness, educate people, and strict rules from government. Spread awareness, if people will be aware of the current population growth of their place, they can come up with their own rules to take to help with the oppressing problem, they will also discipline themselves because they will know what bad might happen if the problem wont be prevented. Educate people, educating people is not an easy job, but through the schools and some talks in their community, it will be easier. Students, primarily high school students, should have sex educations inside their schools aside from that, the parents should also guide their children about this, because it is a sensitive topic. Strict rules from government. If the government will be strict on rules, it will be easy to solve the problem. The government can give equal housing through holding the price of the land or owning commercial lots and selling them in lower prices. The government can also provide more employment for the people through getting more investors and also, government can give the security of the food for the people if resources are well taken care of. These things that government could accomplish will be achieved if the people will do their part in controlling the population growth of their community.
