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

Alona [7]

This would be A because $100 is the initial amount, and you are adding the amount that arises after (d) days. Since you are adding, it will be the sum. B says product, so you can rule it out. D says difference, so you can rule that out as well. C would be adding the days, not the amount earned each day.

kakasveta [241]

Answer:

y=9x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form for a linear equation is y=mx+b. m=9 since it is slope and b=2 which is the y intercept. So the equation would be y=9x+2.
