36 - 100%43 - x  %
we multiply by cross ->  36 * x = 100 / 43 
we should remove '100%' from new value, because we find only increase.. no new value in percent.
x + 100 = (43 * 100)/36 
x =  4300/36 - 100x = 119+ 16/36 -100x = 19 +4/9



the answer is 

19.44% increase

Find (f*g)(x) when f(x)=x^2-7x+12 and g(x)=3/x^2-16
IgorC [24]

The answer is:  (f*g)(x)= \frac{3x-9}{x+4}

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

Given functions are.......

f(x)=x^2-7x+12

g(x)= \frac{3}{x^2-16}

For finding (f*g)(x) , we just <u>need to multiply the two functions</u> f(x) and g(x). So......

(f*g)(x)= f(x)*g(x)\\ \\ (f*g)(x)= (x^2-7x+12)(\frac{3}{x^2-16})\\ \\ (f*g)(x)= [(x-3)(x-4)][\frac{3}{(x+4)(x-4)}]\\ \\ (f*g)(x)= \frac{3(x-3)}{x+4} = \frac{3x-9}{x+4}
