Respuesta :
Population - 50,000
Employed - 45,000
Students not looking for work - 1,000
To calculate Boone's unemployment rate you'll use the formula:
Unemployment rate = number of people unemployed / labor force
Those that fall into the unemployment category are those that are not working but are actively looking/wanting to work. Students, stay-at-home moms etc that are not wanting to work, though unemployed, to not fall into this category.
The labor force is made up of everyone willing and able to work.
First, let's subtract the students who are not looking for work from the population so get the labor force. 50,000 - 1,000 = 49,000 (labor force)
Next, to get the number of people unemployed let us subtract the labor force of 49,000 by those already employed of 45,000. 49,000 - 45,000 = 4,000
Finally, we are able to calculate the unemployment rate of Boone.
Unemployment rate = number of people unemployed / labor force
Unemployment rate = 4,000/49,000= .081 multiply by 100 to get the percentage. 8.1%
Unemployment rate of Boone is 8.1%

Unemployment rate basically means the rate of active and able people who are jobless in the country.
- We need to first calculate Labor force
Labor force = Total population - Full-time students
Labor force = 50,000 - 1,000
Labor force = 49,000
- We need to first calculate Number of unemployed
Number of unemployed = Labor force - Number of employed
Number of unemployed = 49,000 - 45,000
Number of unemployed = 4,000
- We need to calculate Unemployment rate
Unemployment rate = (Number of unemployed / Labor force) * 100
Unemployment rate = (4,000/49,000) * 100
Unemployment rate = 8.16%
Unemployment rate = 8.2%
Therefore, in conclusion, Boone's unemployment rate is 8.2%.
