Population pyramids A population pyramid is a helpful graph for examining the distribution of a country’s population. Here is a population pyramid for Vietnam in the year $2010$. Describe what the graph tells you about Vietnam’s population that year. Be specific.

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

There is not much difference in Vietnam’s population

Step 1: Given information

Given graph :

Step 2: Concept

When objects need to be displayed in a way that demonstrates the hierarchical structure as well as amount or size, pyramid charts are the ideal choice. This can include positions in management, items sold, and business locations, among other things

Step 3: Explanation

The population of the pyramid for Vietnam in the year $2010$ shows that there is little variation in the distribution of males and females in the country. The male population's median (center) is higher than the female population's median (center). The majority of the population is between the ages of $0$ and $50$for both males and females, with a range of $0$ to $100$ for each.

As a result, there isn't much of a divide between males and girls in the country.
