Where’s the question?? I can’t answer without a question.
Answer:
Step 1: Calculate the change by subtracting old cost ($52) from the new cost ($64)
Step 2: Divide that change by the old cost ($52). You will get a decimal number
Step 3: Convert the decimal number to a percentage by multiplying by 100%
Answer:
in short, Yes they are always rational.
here's why...
E.g. suppose 
and 
are fractions, that means that a,b,c,d are all integers, and b and d are not zero. finding the sum the numerator, and denominator would also have to be integers. the denominator of the sum can't be zero since the denominators of the fractions were not zero, and would give 
and since they are bound by addition (sum means addition) they must also be rational since eit would equal a bigger integer than initially had
Step-by-step explanation:
24 divided by 21 is 1.14285714286. In fraction form it is 8/7, or 1 1/7.
Compound interest formula = a=P(1+r/n)^nt
P= lump sum to deposit (solving for)
A= amount accumulated over the entire time (20000)
n= number of times interest is compounded annually (1)
r= rate of interest (0.82)
T= total number of years (15)
20000=P(1+0.082/1)^1*15
20000=P(1.082)^15
20000=P(3.26143638)
20000/3.26143638=P
P=$6132.2674
