Question

A. Original Price: $16.20

Answer 1

Answer:

The final price is $ 22.68  And Proportional constant is 1.4  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The Original price = $ 16.20

The rate of increase = 40%

Let The final price = x

Now,

Final price after increase = initial price × ( 1 + $\frac{\textrm Rate}{100}$

Or. Final price after increase = $ 16.20 × ( 1 + $\frac{\textrm 40}{100}$

Or, Final price after increase = $ 16.20 × ( 1.4 )

∴ Final price after increase = $ 22.68

Now , Proportional constant = $\frac{22.68}{16.20}$

I.e Proportional constant = 1.4

Hence The final price is $ 22.68  And Proportional constant is 1.4  Answer
