the price of a technology stock was $9.53 yesterday. Today, the price rose to $9.66. Find the percentage increase. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent.

Respuesta :

so, 9.66 - 9.53 will then be 0.13, so if we take 9.66 to be the 100%, what is 0.13 off of it in percentage then?

[tex]\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\ 9.66&100\\ 0.13&p \end{array}\implies \cfrac{9.66}{0.13}=\cfrac{100}{p}\implies p=\cfrac{0.13\cdot 100}{9.66}[/tex]
