If u r trying 2 find the absolute value of a positive number, the absolute value of it will not be a negative, it will always be a positive.
If one pound of yogurt cost 55 (cents?) then, Two yogurts cost $1.10
Three yogurts cost $1.65
Four yogurts cost $2.20
Five yogurts cost $2.75
Six yogurts cost $3.30
So u turn the percent into a decimal.
0.10
Now multiply 1200 * 0.10
1200*0.10= 120 ( 120 is the amount that is gonna increase)
So if it says 5 years, than your gonna multiply 120 * 5
120*5 =600
So your gonna add 600 to 1200.
So in five years your gonna be making 1,800.
An easier way would be to use prt
Principle * rate * time
1200 * 0.10* 5
= 600
So now you just add 600 to 1200
= 1800
