I think it's 112 I did it in my head might be wrong
The increase in price is 140% of the original price.
The original price was 100% of the original price since 100% is a whole quantity.
Now the new price is 140% more than it was, so the new price is
100% + 140% of the old price.
100% + 140% = 240%
Now we find 240% of $50.
To find a percent of a number, multiply the percent by the number.
240% of $50 =
= 240% * $50
= 2.4 * $50
= $120
Answer: 10 ft of gold wire now costs $120
Gold wire now costs $12 per foot.
So this would be a cubic graph because the largest exponent is a 3.
The Y-intercepts can be found by making all the x's equal 0, so then that would end up being -96 (makes sense considering a cubic graph intercepts at the origin, and this graph moves it down 96 units.
The X-intercepts (the zeros) are a bit tricky. We know that there will likely be three zeros because the exponent is a three. The zeros for this graph are 3, 4, and 8
So in Summary:
This is a Cubic graph with X-intercepts at (3,0), (4,0) and (8,0) and with Y-intercept at (0,-96)
