The first step to determine the percentage of increase is to
compute for the difference of consumer price index in value.
231.11 (consumer price index for 2012) – 211.4 (consumer
price index for 2007) = 19.71 (increase)
To compute for the percentage of increase, you need to
compare the increase to the consumer price index for 2007.
19.71/211.4 = 9.3% increase
To solve this problem we can make a proportion.
6 5
-- = ---
10 x
to solve this proportion we can cross multiply and divide.
5 times 10 is 50. divided by 6 is 8.3
it will take her 8.3 minutes to run 5 laps
Answer:
Kaylee drove her scooter for 2h and Sophia drove her scooter for 3h.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the graph shown below, we can see that the intersection point is (2,3). When using the graphing method to solve a system of equations, the intersection point is the answer. In this case, x = 2 and y = 3.
Thus, Kaylee drove her scooter for 2h and Sophia drove her scooter for 3h.
