Answer:

C. 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points on the number line is the absolute value of the difference of their coordinates.

If the coordinates of two points on the number line are a and b, then the distance between the two points is

d = |a - b|

The coordinates here are -9 and 7.

distance = |-9 - 7| = |-16| = 16

The number of people signed up for a bus trip increased from 32 to 45. What is the percent increase? Round to the nearest percen

Lynna [10]

To calculate the percentage increase: First: work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing. Then: divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100.

45-32 = 13 / 32 *100= 40.625 round to the nearest percent is 41%
