Answer:
The first increase was of 60%.
Step-by-step explanation:
The initial value of the product is x.
The first increase was of y.
The second increase is of 25%, that is, 1.25.
The final price was double the original, so 2x.
This situation can be modeled by the following equation:

We want to find y.
Simplifying by x



After the first increase, the value was 1.6 of the original value, that is a increase as a percent of (1.6 - 1)*100 = 60%.
Answer:8(2g+1)(4g2-2g+1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Peter's hit be x and Alice's runs be y.
x = 2(y - 6) . . . (1)
x + y = 18 . . . (2)
Putting (1) into (2) gives,
2y - 12 + y = 18
3y = 18 + 12 = 30
y = 30/3 = 10
x = 2(10 - 6) = 2(4) = 8
Therefore, Peter hit 8 home runs and Alice hit 10 home runs.

Answer:
given sequence, -16; -9; -2: _
first term(a)=-16
common difference(d)=-9-(-16)=7
next term is 4
so
4th term=a+(n-1)d
=-16+(4-1)7=-16+21=5
