se the figure to answer the question.
A line graph shows the population in billions from 8000 B.C to 2015 A.D. The first bullet on the graph is 8000 B.C, where the population was 500,000. There is a slow increase to the next bullet, which is located at 1 A.D, where the population is 300,000,000. Then there is a steady increase to the next bullet, which is 1800, where the population is 985,000,000. There is a sharp increase with bullets at 1850 (population is 1,266,000,000), then at 1900 (population is 1,656,000,000), 1950 (population is 2,516,000,000), and 2015 (population is 7,400,000,000).
