10. __________ A dress without tufts
(untufted) takes two hours for an experienced seamstress to sew. A
dress with tufts (tufted) takes three and half hours to sew. What is
the percentage increase in time for a tufted dress versus and
untufted dress? Treat the untufted dress as the original amount and
the tufted dress as the new amount in the percentage change formula.
-
- 11. __________ My wife sews untufted
dresses for ten dollars. If she wants to charge the same rate per
unit time for a tufted dress, how much should she charge? In other
words, what is the new price if the original price is ten dollars
and the percent increase is that determined in the previous problem?
