Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The incidence of flu during the period from September to December 1999 in Country Y can be calculated by dividing the total number of new cases of flu (1,450) by the total number of elderly population (250,000) and multiplying by 100. This gives us an incidence of flu rate of 0.58%.
