Answer:
14/15
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: Original price = $43.10, Increase = $19.40, Final price = $62.50
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let x represent the original price, then
8x(1.45) < $500

x < $43.10
Increase is 0.45x
0.45($43.10)
= $19.40
Final price is Original + Increase
$43.10 + $19.40
= $62.50
