18 mins it is ! I think your missing the question tho
I do not see the exact value, but this is the formula:
Answer:
If the increases are roughly the same, then linear is best. If the multiple factor is roughly the same, then an exponential is best. If the rate at which the increase increases is roughly the same (so A-B=1, B-C=3 C-D=5.2), then quadratic is best.
Step-by-step explanation:
You would add up the percentages first, which would bring everything up to 35%. You would then take the original cost of the item, which is $30 and multiple it by the 35%.
The equation would look like...
30 x .35 =
This will give you $10.50, which isn't the final answer.
You would then subtract 10.50 from the $30 that was asked for at the beginning by the retailer.
Your final answer is $19.50. :) Which isn't a bad deal if I say so myself.
