question 1
a county reports 250 deaths with a population of 500,000. what is the mortality rate?
for the same month last year, the mortality rate was .42 have deaths increased, decreased, or stayed the same?
possible answers:
mortality rate is 0.5 per 1000
the death rates have increased.

Mortality rate is 0.5 per 1000 habitant

the number of deaths have increased (from 210 to 250)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello

Mortality rate is the number of deaths in a specific population,usually expressed in units of deaths per 1,000 individuals per year

where

S=Mortality rate

D=deaths

P= population

n= is a conversion form ,such as multiplying by  10^{3}=1000, to  get mortality rate per 1,000 individuals( we will use n=3)

step 1

asign

S=unknown

D=250

P=500000

n=3, (for each  1000 people)

step 2

Replace

Mortality rate is 0.5 per 1000 habitant

step 3

what if S=0.42

S=0.42(assuming it is 0.42 per 1000,n=3)

D=unknown

P=500000

the number of deaths have increased (from 210 to 250)

Have a great day

after simplifying it i got: -36.25 as my answer. hope that !

the image is given below

since the options are not given so we draw it from the equation

the given equation is

y = (x-1) (x+4)

y = y² + 3x - 4

the above equation is a quadratic equation which will have two roots. if we draw the graph for it, it will look like this
