A 50% increase is just taking the original amount and adding half of that towards the amount.
Example : 50% of 100 is 50 so a 50% increase to 100 would be 150
a formula for this would be X + (1/2×X) = Y
in your case we're working backwards with the known being 60
We can just plug in reasonable values for X until we get 60
50% of 40 is 20
40 + 20 = 60
so the original amount was 40
Answer:
A: Store A will cost about $1.28 less
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, let's find the unit rate of cost. To find that for store A, we divide 7.26 by 3, which gets us 2.42. For store B, we need to look for the first intersection. We find that at (20, 50). Let's divide 50 by 20. That gets us 2.50. Let's multiply 2.42 and 2.50 by 16. That gets us 38.72 for store A and 40 for store B. Let's subtract 38.72 from 40. That gets us 1.28. That means store A costs $1.28 less than store B. That makes our answer A.
