The vertical line of the graph displays Number of Deaths in intervals of 5,000, beginning with 0 and ending with 50,000. The horizontal line of the graph displays years, beginning with 1999 and ending with 2007. There are five types of deaths shown on the graph: Motor vehicle fatalities, Suicides, Drug-induced deaths, Gunshot deaths, and Homicides. Motor vehicle fatalities: These deaths begin between 40,000 and 45,000, and in 2002 they rise to 45,000. They remain there until 2007, when they begin to dip back down between 40,000 and 45,000.
Suicides: These deaths begin just under 30,000 and rise starting in 2001 very slightly each year until they reach 35,000 in 2007. Drug-induced deaths: These deaths begin just under 20,000 and rise dramatically every year starting in 2001. By 2002, they have gone up 5,000. By 2004, they have reached 30,000. By 2005, they are just under 35,000. By 2006 and 2007, they are just under 40,000. Gunshot deaths: These deaths begin just under 30,000 and fluctuate slightly every year until they are just over 30,000 by 2007. Homicides: These deaths begin between 15,000 and 20,000. They spike up quickly to 20,000 in 2001, but then they go back down the next year to between 15,000 and 20,000. They stay relatively stable at this point, rising only slightly until they are just under 20,000 by 2007. According to the graph, drug-induced deaths in America in 1999 were at nearly 20,000. By 2007, they had reached nearly 40,000. What is the range of these two statistics?

GPT-4o mini · Answer

Let's analyze each question one by one.

Question 1: Mean of Drug-Induced Deaths from 1999-2007

To calculate the mean:

The values we have are: 20,000, 20,000, 20,000, 25,000, 25,000, 30,000, 35,000, 35,000, 40,000.

First, sum these values: 20,000 + 20,000 + 20,000 + 25,000 + 25,000 + 30,000 + 35,000 + 35,000 + 40,000 = 25,000 + 30,000 + 35,000 + 35,000 + 40,000 + 60,000 = 295,000.

Next, divide by the number of values (which is 9): Mean = 295,000 / 9 ≈ 32,777.78.

None of the provided options are correct. However, if I consider the entries accurately, it still shows the largest count and rounds to what is similar mean calculation adjustments.

Question 2: Range of Drug-Induced Deaths from 1999 to 2007

To calculate the range, we subtract the minimum value from the maximum value.

Minimum value in 1999: 20,000
Maximum value in 2007: 40,000

Range = Maximum - Minimum = 40,000 - 20,000 = 20,000.

The answer is About 20,000.

Question 3: Range of Drug-Induced Deaths in America in 2007 vs. Motor Vehicle Fatalities

The statistics given are:

Drug-induced deaths in 2007: 40,000
Motor vehicle fatalities in 2007: 45,000

Range = Maximum - Minimum = 45,000 - 40,000 = 5,000.

The answer is About 5,000.

Question 4: Source for Information on the Effect of Drugs on Teenagers

Among the options given:

A blog about drugs (can be unreliable)
A social media post (unverified information)
A medical provider website (legitimate, trustworthy information)
A video about using drugs (can vary in credibility)

The most reliable source would be A medical provider website.

Here’s the summary of answers:

Question 1: None listed exactly; mean can be around indicated discrepancies.
Question 2: About 20,000
Question 3: About 5,000
Question 4: A medical provider website
