A worker's salary increased from $750 to $900 per month. Which equation shows the increase of the worker's salary to the nearest percent?

Respuesta :

[tex]A+\frac{x}{100}A=B[/tex]

where A is the first value, B the second value and x the percent

we can solve x

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{x}{100}A=B-A \\ x=\frac{100\times(B-A)}{A} \end{gathered}[/tex]

this is the equation

and this is the percent:

[tex]\begin{gathered} x=\frac{100\times(900-750)}{750} \\ \\ x=20 \end{gathered}[/tex]

the percent is 20%
