Answer:

The rest of the question is the attached figure

The percent change = [tex]\frac{final-initial}{initial} *100[/tex]

If (+ve) increase and if (-ve) decrease

Part A: What is the percent of change in the cost of a pizza?

The initial price = $7.5

The final price = $9

The percent change = [tex]\frac{9-7.5}{7.5}*100 = 20[/tex]%

Part B: What is the percent of change in the cost of a cheeseburger?

The initial price = $5

The final price = $6.5

The percent change = [tex]\frac{6.5-5}{5}=30[/tex]%

Part C: What is the percent of change in the cost of a serving fries?

The initial price = $2

The final price = $4.5

The percent change = [tex]\frac{4.5-2}{2} = 125[/tex]%

Part D: What is the percent of change in the cost of a hot dog?

The initial price = $2.5

The final price = $2

The percent change = [tex]\frac{2-2.5}{2.5} = -20[/tex]%
