Answer:

  1961

Step-by-step explanation:

Put the given information into the equation and solve for the unknown.

  220,000 = 55,000√(x -1945)

  4 = √(x -1945) . . . . divide by 55,000

  16 = x -1945 . . . . . . square both sides

  1961 = x . . . . . . . . .  add 1945

The population was 220,000 in the year 1961.
