A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. The relative change from last year to this year is 3.7%.

<h3>What are Percentages?</h3>

A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. such as the fraction ¼ can be described as 0.25 which is equal to 25%.

To convert a fraction to a percentage, convert the fraction to decimal form and then multiply by 100 with the '%' symbol.

28.6% of city employees ride the bus to work, therefore, the final value is 28.6. While Last year, 29.7% of city employees rode the bus to work, therefore, the initial value is 29.7.

Since relative change means change with respect to some value. Thus, the relative value with respect to last year is,

Relative value = (29.7-28.6)/29.7 = 0.037 = 3.7%

Hence, the relative change from last year to this year is 3.7%.

Hi there!

\large\boxed{f(-6) = 5}

The value of f(-6) is the y-value at the x-coordinate x = -6.

Looking at the graph, we can see that at x = -6, y = 5.

Therefore, f(-6) = 5.

iragen [17]
I think the answer is substitution property of equality because you are substituting 9 for y as y=9.
