Answer: 220%

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to calculate the percent increase :-

\dfrac{\text{Change in value}}{\text{Previous value}}\times100

Change in distance from 5 miles to 16 miles = 16 miles-5 miles = 11 miles

Previous value = 5 miles

Now, the percent increase will be :_

\dfrac{11}{5}\times100=220\%

Hence,  the percent increase from 5 miles to 16 miles = 220%

Paraphin [41]
Let x represent the amount of money he invested at 11% and y money he invested at 12%. Now we write system of equations:

x*1.11 + y*1.12 = 70 000 + 7900
x + y = 70 000

We will multiply second equation with 1.11
x*1.11 + y*1.11 = 77700
and subtract if from first:
0.01*y =  200
y = 20000

x = 70000 - 20000 = 50000
