To find the percentage rate of change of a function f(x)f(x) we use the formula: f(x)f(x)\frac{f'(x)}{f(x)}. Therefore we need to find the logarithmic derivative f(x):

ddxlnf(x)=11075+110x\frac{d}{dx}\ln f(x)=\frac{110}{75+110x}

By substituting x=16x=16 and multiplying by 100100% we get:

ddxlnf(16)16%=5,99%\frac{d}{dx}\ln f(16) \cdot 16\%= 5,99 \%
