increased price = original price x (2 + increase percentage)

Increased price = 4 x 1.24

Increased price = $4.96

Answer:

The current price of a pound of strawberries is $4.96.

Step-by-step explanation:

Last week, they cost $4.

This week, they cost ($4) plus (24% of $4).

We know that 24% can also be written as 0.24

So 24% of $4 is

0.24 x $4 = $0.96

Since we want to find ($4) plus (24% of $4)

$4 + $0.96 = $4.96

So $4.96 is the final answer.

Answer:

(146 + 0i)

Step-by-step explanation:

(11+5i)(11-5i)

The formula is :

(a+bi) • (x+yi) = ax+by•i^2+(ay+bx)i

and since i^2 = -1 it can be written as :

ax - by + (ay + bx) i
