Y=0.5x+800
in this equation the x is the weeks so for every week that goes by you would multiply 0.5 times that number then add the 800 original cm to get your answer (y)
I asssume we want to find the original price
so marked up 50% means if original price=100, then marked up price=50+100=150%
so
36.76=150%
hack, since 150=3 times 50 and 2 times 50=100, divide 36.76 by 3 then mutiply by 2
36.76=150%
divide both sides by 3
12.25333333333=50%
multiply both sides by 2
24.5=100%
original price=$24.50

a=future amount
p=present amount
r=rate in decimal
n=number off time per year compouonded
t=time in years
P=45,050
r=0.07001
n=4
t=1.25



A=49132.8798
round
A=$49,132.88
