Answer:20.5
Step-by-step explanation:
1.5+1.45+1.40+1.35+1.30+1.25+1.20+1.15+1.10+1.05+1.00+0.95+0.90+0.85+0.80+0.75+0.70+0.65+0.60+0.55=20.5
If you want to go a bit higher, 10:4, 15:6, 20:8, 25:10 and etc
Subtract 6 on both sides


Multiply -2 on both sides to get "x" by itself

x = -8

We need to find the percent increase from 38.8 to 82.4, so
x * 38.8 = 82.4
x = 82.4/38.8
x = 2.1237
Multiply by 100 to convert to percentage (move decimal 2 places to the right)
2.1237 = 212.37%
Now we can apply this percentage increase to the onion dip...
0.48 x 212.37% =
0.48 x 2.1237 = 1.019
Round to the nearest cent $1.02 is the amount of increase. Now add it to the original price to get today's price...
$1.02 + .48 = $1.50
