Calculations:

Mortality Rate (Death Rate) = 100,000 x Number of Resident Deaths  /  Resident Population     
Age Specific Mortality Rate = 100,000 x Number of Resident Deaths in that age group  /  Population within that age group
Infant Mortality Rate = 1,000 x Number of Resident Infant Deaths  /     Number of Resident Live Births

Age Adjusted Rates:
    Oklahoma 2000 Standard Population =  
Age Specific Mortality Rate  x  Population within that age group /       OK 2000 Population
     US 2000 Standard Population =  
Age Specific Mortality Rate  x  Population within that age group /      US 2000 Population
***when calculating the rate for combined years the population is the sum of the populations for the specified time span***
