Suppose some country had an adult population of about 46 million, a labor-force participation rate of 75 percent, and an unemployment rate of 8 percent. How many people were employed?

31.74 million people were employed.

Step-by-step explanation:

The unemployment rate is the number of unemployed people divided by the size of the labor force.

So the first step to solve this problem is finding the size of the country's labor force.

Suppose some country had an adult population of about 46 million, a labor-force participation rate of 75 percent.

So the size of the country labor force is:

0.75 * 46 million = 34.5 million people.

Unemployment rate of 8 percent. How many people were employed?

This means that 100 - 8 = 92 percent of people were employed. Remembering, this considers only the labor force, of 34.5 million people. So

0.92 * 34.5 million = 31.74 million

31.74 million people were employed.

to plot points   for x just start at the origin (middle) and go to the left however many times it say(if the number is a positive) if the number is a negative then go right however many times it says if it is 0 go nowhere

now keep you pencil there and go up however many times it says on y(if it is positive) if it is negative then go down however many times it says. if it says 0 go nowhere.

you have just plotted a point! now when you finish plotting all of them connect them with a ruler

plot each point as (-3, 7), (0,4), (3,1), (8,-4)   in the parenthesis on the left of the comma is x and the right is y.

there is no question content here, but you for the free points! : d
