Answer:

D. + 1.69 %

Explanation:

To determine which is the correct answer to the question, we have to first evaluate whether the DOW was up or down for the day. The question provides the info that it was up 215.04 on that day. So automatically, the answer options A and C are eliminated since they represent negative changes.

To determine the percentage increase, we have to find out the prior day closing of the DOW, this is found out by subtracting the days' gain from the total level.

12,958.44 - 215.04  = 12,743.40

the gain for the day of 215.04 on the base figure represents the  % gain.

215.04 / 12743.40 = 1.69 %

The automobile will not remain the primary source of transportation true or false
Ivenika [448]
I think the correct answer would be false. The automobile will remain the primary source of transportation. As we can see today, almost all of the people use automobile to go to different places. As we see in the road, different vehicles are present. Also, the automobile industry, recently, is a booming industry. We have different models, colors, brands and specifications of the vehicles. I think the use of automobiles as the primary source of transportation would still go for many years as it is the most convenient and comfortable transportation as compared to others like bicycle, train and motorcycle.
