Answer

$19.7$ ($\%$), greater than $14$ ($\%$),

Work Step by Step

Step 1. Given the model equation $p=-0.01s^2+0.8s+3.7$, with $x=40$, we have $p=-0.01(40)^2+0.8(40)+3.7=19.7$ ($\%$) Step 2. Compare with the result ($14\%$) from the previous exercise, we can see that $19.7\%$ is more than $14\%$
