Given conditions are :
In 1980's, a typical middle-income household earned= $34,757
In 2009, a similar middle-income household earned= $38,550
And we have to find relative increase in income for these households from 1980 to 2009.
So first we will find the total increase in amounts.
Relative increase =
= 10.91% or rounding it off we get approx 11%.
Hence, the answer is 11%.
From the steps shown in the table given, we can conclude that: D. in solving the equation, the subtraction property of equality was not applied.
<h3>What is the Subtraction Property of Equality?</h3>If a + b = c, to apply the subtraction property of equality so that b is moved to the other side of the equation, we would have:
a + b - b = c - b
a = c - b
Thus, from the table given, the none of the steps showed that the subtraction property of equality was applied in solving the equation, so, the answer is: D.
