Answer: 233 people per thousand
Step-by-step explanation:
Using extrapolation method,
if 150/k in 1950,
200/k in 1990,
275/k in 2020,
2003 lies in between 1990 and 2020. So, you extrapolate the values of 200/k and 275/k for the years respectively.
Therefore,
(2003 - 1990)/(2020 - 2003) = (x - 200)/(275 - x)
Where x is the number of retirees per thousand for 2003
Making x the subject of relation in the above equation.
Cross multiply the equation above;
(2003 - 1990)(275-x) = (2020 - 2003)(x - 200)
13(275 - x) = 17(x-200)
3575 - 13x = 17x - 3400
Collect the like terms
3575+3400 = 17x + 13x
30x = 6975
x = 6975/30
x = 232.5
x = 233 people per thousand to the nearest integer
The answer would be (5, -2). This is because when you plug in the respective values in for x and y into the equation 3x - 3y = 21, you get 21, which is the desired answer.
3x - 3y = 21
3(5) - 3(-2) = 21
15 + 6 = 21
21 = 21
