Respuesta :

Answer:

enrollment decreases by 14.34%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that number of students enrolled in 2000 = 823

Given that number of students enrolled in 2010 = 705

705 is less than 823 so that means number of students enrollment is decreasing.


Decrease = 823-705 = 118

Percent decrease is given by formula:

[tex]Percent =\frac{part}{whole}\cdot100 =\frac{118}{823}\cdot100= 14.3377885784[/tex]

which is approx 14.34%.

Hence final answer is that enrollment decreases by 14.34%
