Answer:

  -12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

A percentage change is computed using ...

  percent change = ((new amount) -(original amount))/(original amount) × 100%

We want to find the percentage change from 4.8 m, so we have ...

  percent change = (4.2 -4.8)/4.8 × 100% = -.6/4.8×100% = -12.5%

The carpenter made the track 12.5% too short.

A city was founded at the beginning of 1990 with a population of 55,000, and since then, the growth in its population has been e
andrew-mc [135]
You can solve this analytically to get
.. 55000*(1 +x/100)^10 = 108193
.. (1 +x/100)^10 = 108193/55000
.. 1 +x/100 = (108193/55000)^(1/10)
.. x = 100*((108193/55000)^(1/10) -1) ≈ 7.00

but I find it just as fast to have a graphing calculator do it.

The city's population is increasing 7% per year.
