The equation for inflation is
A = P*(1+r)^t
which is an exponential growth equation (if r > 0). If r < 0, then we have deflation.
where...
A = final price after t years
P = initial starting price
r = rate of inflation in decimal form
t = number of years
In this case,
A = unknown (we're solving for this)
P = 280 is the starting price
r = 0.05 is the decimal form of 5%
t = 2 years
We will plug these three pieces of info into the formula to get...
A = P*(1+r)^t
A = 280*(1+0.05)^2
A = 280*(1.05)^2
A = 280*(1.1025)
A = 308.70
Answer: 308.70 dollars
Answer: 16 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a triangle = bh/2
where b = base = unknown
h = height = 5 3/4 inches
Area = 46 inches²
Therefore, 46 = base × 5 3/4 / 2
Cross multiply
46 × 2 = base × 5 3/4
92 = base × 5 3/4
Base = 92 ÷ 5 3/4
Base = 92 ÷ 23/4
Base = 92 × 4/23
Base = 4 × 4
Base = 16 inches
Pretty sure the answer is A
The number would stay the same because, for example, 6 - 0 can't be 0 so it would be 6.
