Answer:

A. What is the percent of change from last year to this year.

Answer: The percent of change from last year to this year is:

[tex]\frac{10.00 - 8.50}{8.50} \times 100[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1.50}{8.50} \times 100[/tex]

[tex]17.65 \%[/tex]

Therefore, the percent change from last year to this year is 17.65%

B. Is this a percent increase or decrease?

Answer: This is a percent increase.

C. If you have 25% off coupon to use on 10.00 ticket what is the cost?

Answer: The 25% of 10.00 is given below:

[tex]\frac{25}{100} \times 10.00[/tex]

[tex]0.25 \times 10.00[/tex]

[tex]2.5[/tex]

Therefore, the cost is:

[tex]10.00 -2.5 =7.5[/tex]
