a) From the the given data:
The 2020 GDP / capita for Ni is 1.94
The 2020 GDP / capita for United States is 63.23
The equivalent CO2 emissions per equivalent US$ of GDP for Ni/geria
is 1.265
The equivalent CO2 emissions per equivalent US$ of GDP for United States is 0.218
c) From the typical trend predictions, the equivalent CO2 emission per equivalent US$ for the year 2035 is 513.59 T g C / yr
How to find the GDP per capita
GDP per capita is solved by gross domestic product GDP divided by population
GDP per capita for Ni/geria
= 400 / 206
= 1.94
GDP per capita for United States
= 20930 / 331
= 63.23
How to find equivalent CO2 emissions per equivalent US$ of GDP
Equivalent CO2 emissions per equivalent US$ of GDP is gotten by
= CO2 emissions / GDP
Ni/geria
= 506 / 400
= 1.265
United States
= 4570 / 20930
= 0.218
How to compute equivalent CO2 emission per equivalent US$ for the year 2035 for Ni/geria
Given that CO2 increment per year is 0.1% / yr. From 2020 to 2035 is 15 years and this shows increment of 15 * 0.1 = 1.5%
At 2020 it was 506 Tg C / yr with 1.5% increment we have
= 506 * 1.5%
= 7.59
The increment is 506 + 7.59 = 513.59 Tg C / yr
Therefore the equivalent CO2 emission per equivalent US$ for the year 2035 is 513.59 Tg C / yr
