Answer:

16%  is the percent of increase to the nearest​ whole-number percent.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the cost of a pound of nails increased from ​$2.17 to ​$2.52.

  • $2.52 - $2.17 = $0.35

so dividing the 0.35 by 2.17 would give us the percetange of increase

  • 0.35/2.17 = 0.16 which is 16%.

Therefore, 16%  is the percent of increase to the nearest​ whole-number percent.

jeka94

Answer:

74 pages/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change is the difference in the numbers of pages  divided by the difference in the numbers of hours.

At the end of 3 hours, 90 pages were read.

At he end of 5 hours, 238 pages were read.

Difference in hours: 5 hours - 3 hours = 2 hours.

Difference in pages: 238 pages - 90 pages = 148 pages

The average rate of change is the difference in pages divided by the difference in hours.

average rate of change = (148 pages)/(2 hours) = 74 pages/hour
