Solution

The sentence technique used in "The city, bustling with inspired entrepreneurs, will likely increase the population by 20%." is Appositive.

Here's why:

An appositive is a noun or noun phrase that renames another noun right beside it. In this case, "bustling with inspired entrepreneurs" is providing additional information or clarifying the noun "The city".

A participial phrase would include a present or past participle at the beginning of the phrase. An adjective phrase would be a group of words that describe a noun or pronoun in a sentence. Neither of these are present in the sentence. Therefore, the correct answer is Appositive.
