Answer:
5. f(x) = 10,000 (1.5)^x
Step-by-step explanation:
We would have to multiply the original amount by 1.50^x because the initial amount would be 1, and 50% increase would be .5 so 1.5 and you raise it to the number of years to show the total increase.
Let's test it.
Initial:
10,000
After 1 year
10,000 + (.5*10000)
10,000 + 5000 = 15,000
After 2 years
15,000 + (.5*15000)
15,000 + 7500 = 22,500
Let's try our equation.
f(x) = 10,000 (1.5)^x
x = 2
10,000(1.5)^2
10,000(2.25) = 22,500
The same!
23 can go 7 times into 162! Hope this helps ;(
Since the full price is $12 and the person paid one shirt full price and the other 50% off, the fraction would be 6/12. When you simplify that fraction you are left with 1/2. This means that the answer you are looking for is letter C.
