Answer:
The percent change in salary from one job to the next is 88.57%.
Step-by-step explanation:
The previous salary of per hour = $8.75 per hour
The current salary of per hour = $16.50 per hour
Change in the salary rate per hour = Current salary - Previous Salary
= $16.50 per hour - $8.75 per hour
=$7.75 per hour
⇒The change in the salary per hour rate is $7.75
Now, [tex]\textrm{Percentage Change in salary} = \frac{\textrm{Change in the rate of salary}}{\textrm{Previous Salary}} \times 100[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{7.75}{8.75} \times 100 = 88.57[/tex]
or, the change in salary percentage is 88.57%
Hence, the percent change in salary from one job to the next is 88.57%.
