Answer:
A. $130.50
B. 150%
C. 50%
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find 50% of 87 and add it to find the new price.
87 x 0.5 = 43.5
87 + 43.5 = 130.5
Then, find the percent by doing 130.5 ÷ 87, which is 150%
Calculate the percent increase by doing (130.5-87) ÷ 87, which is 50%
Answer:
12%
Step-by-step explanation:
Percentage increase of something is often represented in a formula of a format like this:
X=Ar^t
Where X represents the total amount after t years.
A or 87000 in this case represents the starting value, which is this case is the starting population of the town. r or 1.12 represents the percentage increase, if it increases by 12% than the next year has 1.12 times as many people as the previous year so this is represented by 1.12 rather than say 0.12 which would indicate a 88% decrease instead. t is the time, no. of years in this case, that has elapsed since 1996.
This formula basically means that a town population of 87000 increases by 12% for every year of time that elapses.
Hope this helped!
It depends on what that number is.
