Answer:

c = 1.05p

Step-by-step explanation:

the price of the hat before the increase was 100%, after the increase it becomes 100 + 5% = 105%. Representing it as a decimal becomes 1.05p

Let illustrate with an example.

The price of a hat was $100, after the 5% increase. the cost of the hat becomes

100 + (0.05 x 100) = 105

To find the percentage increase

divide 105 by 100 and subtract 1

(105/100) - 1 = 1.05

X^4-28x^2=0 solve algebraically
Paha777 [63]
x^4 - 28x^2  = 0

x^2(x^2 - 28) = 0

x^2 = 0 \ \ or \ \ (x^2 - 28) = 0

x = 0 \ \ or \ \ x^2 = 28

x = 0 \ \ or \ \ x = \pm \sqrt{28}

x = 0 \ \ or \ \ x = \pm2 \sqrt{7}

---------------------------------------------------
Answer : x = 0 or 2√7 or -2√7
