x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 5x - 29

Combine like terms.

3x + 3 = 5x - 29

Subtract 3x from both sides.

3 = 2x - 29

Add 29 to both sides.

32 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2.

16 = x

Answer:

The change in the standard of living, measured by growth in real GDP per person, is 0.1356%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

In the current year,

Population = 31.5 million,

Real GDP = $814 million,

So, the real GDP per person = $\frac{814}{31.5}$ ≈ 25.841

In the previous year,

Population = 31 million,

Real GDP = $800 million,

So, the real GDP per person = $\frac{800}{31}$ ≈ 25.806

Hence, change percentage = $\frac{\text{Change in GDP per person}}{\text{Previous year GDP per person}}\times 100$

$=\frac{25.841-25.806}{25.806}\times 100$

$=\frac{0.035}{25.806}\times 100$

$=\frac{3.5}{25.806}$

≈ 0.1356 %
