2r + 2s = 50
2r - s = 17
-----------subtract
3s = 33
s = 11
2r - s = 17
2r - 11 = 17
2r = 28
r = 14
so r = 14 and s = 11
answer is C. r = 14, s = 11
Answer:
12.5% increase OR 112.5% Percentage of Change
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem consider that our original maximum value is 96 square feet, but our new maximum value is 108 square feet. So to find the change as a percentage (in this case the increase) use the following formula:
Percentage of Change = ( New Maximum / Old Maximum ) * 100
So, let's use this formula to find the percentage change of the room.
Percentage of Change = ( 108 / 96 ) * 100
Percentage of Change = (1.125) * 100
Percentage of Change = 112.5
So the percentage of Change is 112.5%. Note, the old maximum is the point of comparison which is 100%.
So to find the increase, we will do 112.5% - 100% to get 12.5%. Hence, we have a 12.5% increase of a 108 square foot room compared to a room of 96 square feet.
