The The U. S.based motorcycle manufacturer says that it expects to build 140,000 motorcycles this year, up from 126.000 last year. Find the percent of increase in production.

The us based motorcycle manufacturer says that it expects to build 140,000 motorcycles this year up from 126,000 last year.

This means the increased production is

144,000 - 126,000 = 18,000

The percentage change in production can

be found using the formula as listed below

PERCENTAGE INCREASE = change / initial × 100

Substitute the values we get

18,000/126,000 × 100

14.28 = percentage increase

12

step-by-step explanation:

12 + 5 = 17

12x2=24

24-7=17

y = 3x+4

step-by-step explanation:

to find the slope

slope = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (-8-4)/ (-4-0)

    = -12/-4

  = 3

using the slope intercept form of a line

y= mx+b

we know the slope is 3

we know the y intercept is 4 ( the point where it crosses the y axis or x=0)

y = 3x+4
