Respuesta :

Answer:

annual increase in the price of the average house is 2.64 %

Explanation:

given data

future value  = $27,958

time t = 9 year

present value = $22,108

solution

we get here rate r of increase that is express as

future value = present value × [tex](1+r)^{t}[/tex]   ...................1

put here value and we get r

$27,958 = $22,108 × [tex](1+r)^{9}[/tex]

[tex](1+r)^{9}[/tex] =  1.2646

r = 0.026427

r = 2.64%
