Question 4

Between 2000 and 2010, the use of opioids was

exploding in the USA. We use MME (Morphine

Milligram Equivalents) as a measure of doses used.

It went from 91 billion doses in 2000 to a level 159%

higher in 2009.

Using the linear model to estimate consumptions,

what would be the equivalent annual growth rate

that occurred between 2007 and 2009?

Give your answer in % and if needed, round your

answer to 2 digits after the decimal point.
