Answer:

Let x thousand births per day

Let y thousand deaths per day

Each day, the number of births in the world is 45 thousand less than three times the number of

deaths.

x=3y-45 (1)

Population increase= birth - death

=x-y(2)

substitute (1) into (2)

3y-45-y=241

2y-45=241

2y=196 (plus 45 from both side)

y=98 (divide 2 from both side)

x-y=241

x-98=241

x=339 ( pluse 98 from both side)

So, There are 339 thousand births per day

There are 98 thousand deaths per day
