Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The percent rate of change can be calculated as [(New Value - Old Value) / Old Value] * 100. 
Here, we have:
New Value = number of bees on day 2
Old Value = number of bees on day 0
Percent rate of change = [(New Value - Old Value) / Old Value] * 100

Assuming the number of bees on day 0 is x and the number of bees on day 2 is y, we have:
Percent rate of change = [(y - x) / x] * 100

From the graph, we can estimate that the number of bees on day 0 is around 20 and the number of bees on day 2 is around 26. Therefore:
Percent rate of change = [(26 - 20) / 20] * 100
Percent rate of change = 30%

This is not the same as the given statement, so the answer is false.
