QUESTION 1

Geographers measure the geographical center of a country (which is the centroid) and the
population center of a country (which is the center of mass computed with the population
density). A hypothetical country is shown in the figure with the location and population of
five towns. Assuming no one lives outside the towns, find the geographical center of the
country and the population center of the country.
