You expect an increase in sales this summer at your water ice stand from 150 cups per day to 175. What is the rate of increase?

Respuesta :

Rate of increase = ( Present Value - Past value ) / Past value * 100

So for our problem we plug the values

Rate of increase =[tex] \frac{175 - 150}{150} * 100 [/tex] Percent

= [tex] \frac{25}{150} * 100 [/tex]

= [tex] \frac{2500}{150} [/tex]

= [tex] \frac{50}{3} % [/tex]

= 16.667 %
