There were only 22 California
condors, which are large predatory birds, living in
the wild. In 2012, the population had increased to
405 condors. To the nearest whole percent, what is
the percent increase in the California condor population?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial number of Condors = 22

New number of Condors = 405

Use percentage increase formula to find the percentage increase in Condor's population in 2012;

Percentage increase = [tex]\frac{(New - Initial)}{Initial} * 100[/tex]

Next, plug in the numbers into the formula;

Percentage increase = [tex]\frac{(405-22)}{22} *100\\ \\ =\frac{383}{22} *100\\ \\ =1740.909091[/tex]

=Therefore, they increase by 1741% to the nearest whole percent.
