Answer:

Increasing percentage = 11.06%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  : In 2015, Gary earned $25,300. In 2016, he received a raise and earned $28,100.

To find : what would be a good estimate for the percent increase.

Solution : We have given

In 2005 , Gray earned = $25,300.

In 2016, raise and earned = $28,100.

Increasing percentage = \frac{increase\ value}{orignal\ value}*100.

Increased value = $28,100 -$25,300= $2800.

Increasing percentage = \frac{2800}{25300}*100.

Increasing percentage = \frac{2800}{253}.

Increasing percentage = 11.06%

Therefore,Increasing percentage = 11.06%.

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Lenght = 18 inches

Width =15 inches

Perimeter of the rectangular painting and frame = 90 inches

Let X be the width of the frame

The width of the framed picture = 15 + 2x

The length of the framed picture = 18 + 2x

Perimeter = 2 (L + W)

90 = 2(15 + 2x + 18+ 2x)

90 = 2(33 + 4x)

90 = 66 + 8x

8x = 90 - 66

8x = 24

x = 24/8

x = 3 inches

the width of the frame is 3 inches
