Now in percentage increase
Percentage increase = [tex]\frac{price in 2009 - price in 2008}{price in 2008}[/tex] × 100
Or, Percentage increase = [tex]\frac{$ 7.70 - $ 7.36}{$ 7.36}[/tex] × 100
Or, Percentage increase = [tex]\frac{$ 0.34}{$ 7.36}[/tex] × 100
∴ Percentage increase = 4.619 %
Hence The increase price of movie ticket is $ 0.34 or 4.619 % Answer
