Answer 2

Year 1 and 2

36%

Explanation:

Given the data :

Year ______1 ___ 2 ____ 3 ___ 4

Students __ 14 __ 19 ___ 25 __ 33

Greatest growth is observed between year 1 and 2

Growth percent :

(year 2 - year 1) / year 1 * 100%

(19 - 14) / 14 * 100%

5 / 14 * 100%

0.3571 * 100%

= 35. 71%

= 36%

The growth percent between year 1 and 2 is greater than between the other years

Year 2 and 3 = (6/19) * 100% = 31.57%

Year 3 and 4 = (8/25) * 100% = 32%
