<h3>The time in fourth race is 43.04 seconds</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
Shelly is trying to improve her running time for a track race
She ran the first race in 43.13 seconds
Her time was 43.1 seconds in the second race and 43.07 seconds in the third race
<em><u>Therefore, pattern is:</u></em>
43.13, 43.1, 43.07 , ..
<em><u>Find the difference between each terms</u></em>
d = 43.13 - 43.1 = 0.03
d = 43.1 - 43.07 = 0.03
Thus the difference is same
<em><u>If this pattern continues what will shellys time be in the fourth race?</u></em>
Fourth race = third race - 0.03
Fourth race = 43.07 - 0.03 = 43.04
Thus the time in fourth race is 43.04 seconds
Answer:
j
Step-by-step explanation:
<h2>Steps</h2>
So here are a couple expressions when a value changes by percentage (p = percentage in decimal form and m = original value):
- When <em>decrease</em>: (1 - p)m
- When <em>increase</em>: (1 + p)m
So firstly, the $80 share dropped by 15%. Since this is a <em>decrease</em>, follow the appropriate expression:

<em>On Tuesday, the share went from $80 to $68</em>
Next, on Wednesday the share increased by $7. With this, just add $68 and 7.

<em>On Wednesday, the share went from $68 to $75</em>
Lastly, on Thursday the share increased by 12%. Since this is an <em>increase</em>, follow the appropriate expression:

<h2>Answer</h2>
<u>The final price of the share is $84.</u>
