Answer:

146%

Step-by-step explanation:

percent~change = \dfrac{new~price - old~price}{old~price} \times 100%

If the percent change is positive, it is a percent increase.

If the percent change is negative, it is a percent decrease.

Your numbers are

old price = $0.92

new price = $2.26

Plug in the numbers in the formula above and evaluate the expression.

percent change = ($2.26 - $0.92)/($0.92) * 100%

percent change = ($1.34)/($0.92) * 100%

percent change = 1.4565 * 100%

percent change = 146%

Since the percent change is a positive number, it is a percent increase.

Answer: The percent increase is 146%.

Answer:

Initial value = 4

Growth factor = 1.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Function representing the exponential growth is given by,

f(x) = Initial value(1 + growth rate)ˣ

Here x = time or duration for growth

(1 + growth rate) = Growth factor

Given function is,

f(x) = 4(1.6)ˣ

By comparing both the functions,

Initial value = 4

Growth factor = 1.6
