Dunn, Samuel L.; And Others – Mathematics Teacher, 1978
A mathematical model is developed for making population projections at five-year intervals from 1975 to 2000. The model starts with 1970 population figures, broken down by age and sex, and incorporates the change factors of birth, death, immigration, and emigration. A computer program is included along with projection outputs. (MN)
