Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The median growth rate in the year ending July 1, 2017 was 0.46 percent, the second slowest this century behind 2016. The sluggish rate was driven by eight states with falling populations-the largest number of states to lose population in a single year since 1989.
Detailed explanation-2: -Crude birth rate: Number of live births per 1, 000 population: (Number of live births / Estimated midyear Population) * 1, 000.
Detailed explanation-3: -Population growth rate is the percentage change in the size of the population in a year. It is calculated by dividing the number of people added to a population in a year (Natural Increase + Net In-Migration) by the population size at the start of the year.
