Answer:
The largest change in the energy industry's emission in Oklahoma from 1995 to 2015 is the percentage change in the emission of nitrogen oxides with a reduction of 64.69%
Explanation:
The percentage change in emission is given as follows;
[tex]Percentage \ Change = \dfrac{New \ amount - Initial \ amount }{Initial \ amount} \times 100[/tex]
Which gives;
1) For carbon dioxide, we have;
[tex]Percentage \ Change \ in \ emission = \dfrac{41,626,050 - 43,174,445 }{43,174,445} \times 100 = -3.59 \%[/tex]
Therefore, there was a reduction of 3.59% in carbon dioxide emission between 1995 and 2015
2) For sulfur dioxide, we have;
[tex]Percentage \ Change \ in \ emission = \dfrac{60,943 - 114,317}{114,317} \times 100 = -46.69 \%[/tex]
Therefore, there was a reduction of 46.69% in sulfur dioxide emission between 1995 and 2015
3) For nitrogen oxides, we have;
[tex]Percentage \ Change \ in \ emission = \dfrac{29,381 - 83,201}{83,201} \times 100 = -64.69 \%[/tex]
Therefore, there was a reduction of 64.69% in nitrogen oxide emission between 1995 and 2015
Which shows that the largest change in the energy industry's emission in Oklahoma from 1995 to 2015 was the percentage change in the emission of nitrogen oxides.
