Answer 2

Answer:

12.78%

Step-by-step explanation:

Motorcycle manufacturer built motorcycles last year for = $133,000

This year it expects to build for = $150,000

Let the percent of increase in production this year = x%

x% = $\frac{(150,000-133,000)}{133,000}$

$\frac{x}{100}$ = $\frac{17,000}{133,000}$

x = 12.78%

The increase in production is  12.78%
