Answer:

The percentage change (an increase) wa 40%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The beginning number of acres was 100; adding 40 more brought that to 140 acres.  This was an increase.  Dividing the increase (40) by the starting value (100) yields 0.40.  Finally, multiplying this result by 100% yields 40%.

The percentage change (an increase) wa 40%.

KATRIN_1 [288]
Consumer Price Index or also most commonly known as CPI is calculated through the equation,
                      CPI = (price at a certain year / price at base year) x 100
Since, we have chosen 2014 as the base year, the denominator of the fraction will be $86. Calculating the CPI for 2015,
                       CPI = ($90/$86) x 100
                              = <em>104.65</em>

Alik [6]

Answer:

77

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we need to calculate the total score of the junior students and the total score of the senior students.

The total score of the junior students is 35 * 80 = 2,800

The total score of the senior students is 15 * 70 = 1050

The total score is thus 2,800 + 1,050 = 3,850

The average score of the 50 students is thus 3,850/50 which equals 77
