Substitute each x and the respecting y to the equation
Answer:
52(9/7)^t/1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The function N(t) a which models the number of branches t years after Aleksandra began studying her trees ;
Initial number of branches = 52
Increment every 1.5 years = 2/7
N(t) = Initial * (1 + r)^t
t expressed per year = t/1.5
Hence,
N(t) = 52(1 + 2/7)^t/1.5
N(t) = 52(9/7)^t/1.5
Markup = $4
b) markup as a percentage of cost is 33.3%
Step-by-step explanation:
Markup
markup = selling price - cost
= $13 - 9
... markup = $3
Markup as a Percentage of Cost
To find the percent markup, divide the markup by the reference value and multiply the ratio by 100%. The reference value for markup is usually cost price, but sometimes may be selling price.
... markup / cost × 100% = 3/9×100% = 33 1/3% ≈ 33.3%
