- The current population of the city is 45,000.

- The population decreases annually at a rate of 2%.

- Calculate the population after 1 year by reducing 2%: 45,000 x (1 - 0.02) = 45,000 x 0.98 = 44,100.

- Calculate the population for the second year using the same rate: 44,100 x 0.98 = 43,218.

- Comparing this value with the options, option 4: 43,218 matches your calculation.
