a) i) Calculate the percentage change of African urban population growth between 2005 and 2030.

Step 1: Identify the urban population in 2005 and 2030 from Table 2. Initial urban population (2005) =408,600,000= 408,600,000 Final urban population (2030) =697,890,000= 697,890,000

Step 2: Calculate the change in urban population. Change=FinalPopulationInitialPopulationChange = Final Population - Initial Population Change=697,890,000408,600,000Change = 697,890,000 - 408,600,000 Change=289,290,000Change = 289,290,000

Step 3: Calculate the percentage change. PercentageChange=ChangeInitialPopulation×100%Percentage Change = \frac{Change}{Initial Population} \times 100\% PercentageChange=289,290,000408,600,000×100%Percentage Change = \frac{289,290,000}{408,600,000} \times 100\% PercentageChange=0.7080029...×100%Percentage Change = 0.7080029... \times 100\% PercentageChange70.80%Percentage Change \approx \text{70.80\%}
