First, you locate 1995 on the x axis, which is in between 1990 and 2000. Then, you go straight up until you touch the line, which is right above 250, 000, 000.
Or Process of elimination:
Since it's going upward, it can't be 150, 000, 000. Since 200, 000, 000 is 1970 it has to be higher, since the line is at an angle. Which leaves us with 2 answers. 300, 000, 000 is above 2009, that leaves us with A. 250, 000, 000
First find the amount of increase: 380-300=80. Then divide the amount of increase by the original amount: 80/300=.266666667. Normally you round to the tenths place: .27. Then make it a percent: .27=27%. The percent of increase is 27% :) hope this helps
In the given question, there are several data of immense importance. based on these data's the answer to the question can be easily deduced. it is already given that the total utility bill for the month of April in Millers house is $132 and 42% of the bill was paid for gas. remaining amount is paid as electricity charges. Now Amount of money paid for gas = 132 * (42/100) dollars = 5544/100 dollars = 55.44 dollars Then The amount of money paid for electricity = (132 - 55.44) dollars = 76.56 dollars So the Millers paid 55.44 dollars for gas and 76.56 dollars for electricity in the month of April.
