You can work out the percentage change and that would help you work out the rate of appreciation :)
The formula is ((new value - old value)/old value) * 100.
So you do 
Therefore the rate of appreciation is 8% p/a.
That would be b
hope this helps
The answer is b because 95 confidence is interval for the mean lifespan
Let's call n the number of days Marika's been training for the race, and
the distance she runs on the nth day in meters. After the first day, when n = 1, she runs 100 meters, so

On the second day, she runs an additional 4 meters, on the third day, another 4, and so on. Here's what that looks like mathematically:

It would be easier to write this continued addition as multiplication, in which case those same equations would look like

Notice that, in every case, the number 4 is being multiplied by is 1 less than n. We could even write for our first term that
. In general, we can say that

Which is expressed by option B.
(Bonus: What piece of information from this question did we not need to use here?)
Answer:
a negative slope is like this net.
