Respuesta :

Answer:

75%

Explanation:

Average Last Season = 68 yards per game.

Average This Season = 119 yards per game.

To find the percent of the increase in Noah's average, we use the formula:

[tex]\text{Percent Increase=}\frac{Final\; \text{Value}-\text{Initial Value}}{\text{Initial Value}}\times100[/tex]

Substituting the given values, we have:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Percent Increase=}\frac{119-68}{68}\times100 \\ =\frac{51}{68}\times100 \\ =0.75\times100 \\ =75\% \end{gathered}[/tex]

The percent of the increase in Noah's average is 75%.
