Because the population size may change over time, you also decide to look at rates, which for drug overdose are generally expressed as deaths/100,000 residents. The statepopulation for 2015 was estimated at 11,620,000.Calculate the rate of drug overdosedeaths

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

As the junior public health epidemiologist in a large state in the Midwest Rust Belt, you have been asked by your supervisor to assist her in updating the statistics on opioid deaths. She is also asking for your help in writing a brief report describing the current situation for the annual report on drug abuse.

- In 2015, there were 3050 drug-related deaths, of which 2950 involved opioids, What percent of the deaths were due to opioids? Express your answer in the following format: XX.XX% (e.g., 54.81%).

- Because the population size may change over time, you also decide to look at rates, which for drug overdose are generally expressed as deaths/100,000 residents. The state population for 2015 was estimated at 11,620,000.Calculate the rate of drug overdose deaths.

the rate of drug overdosedeaths is 27 per 100,000 residents

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

3050 drug-related deaths in 2015,

Deaths due to opioids in 2015 is 2950

percentage = (2950 / 3050) × 100 = 96.72%

therefore

percentage of the deaths that were due to opioids in 2015 is 96.72%

-

we know that

State population for 2015 =  11,620,000

Number of drug-related deaths in 2015 = 3050

Death rate is number of deaths recorded divided by the number of population, and then multiplied by 100,000 as in the question

so

Rate of drug overdose = (3050 / 11620000) × 100,000

=26.25 ≈ 27 per 100,000 residents { since of person can't be decimal)

therefore

the rate of drug overdosedeaths is 27 per 100,000 residents
