The problem here is: Too many words.
If you boil the problem down to the bare facts, the question is:
"$210 is 15% of what number ?"
I'm pretty sure you can take it from there,
but here's the rest of it anyway:
$210 = 15% of (March amount)
$210 = 0.15 x (March amount)
Divide each side by 0.15 : $1400 = March amount .
Check:
1400 + 210 = 1610
1.15 x 1400 = 1610 yay!

James answered 51 questions correctly.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Slide the decimal 2 places to the left in the percentage (85% = .85)
2) Multiply total by new decimal (60 x .85)
3) All done! (51)
Keep in mind that 100% is just 1 whole. Therefor 85% of one whole is .85. In this problem, 60 represents our whole.

Answer:
-3.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the table, the y value goes down by -4 and then -2, for a total of -6.
We did this over a period of two units (To go from -1 to 1, we add 2).
-6/2 = -3.
-3 is the average rate of change over the interval.
