It’s 10 points not 20
Explanation
We need to find the percent increase from 38.8 to 82.4, so
x * 38.8 = 82.4
x = 82.4/38.8
x = 2.1237
Multiply by 100 to convert to percentage (move decimal 2 places to the right)
2.1237 = 212.37%
Now we can apply this percentage increase to the onion dip...
0.48 x 212.37% =
0.48 x 2.1237 = 1.019
Round to the nearest cent $1.02 is the amount of increase. Now add it to the original price to get today's price...
$1.02 + .48 = $1.50
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
23x + xy - y + 3y + 5 - 20x + 6xy = 23x - 20x + xy + 6xy -y + 3y + 5
= 3x + 7xy + 2y + 5
Errors:1) The combined coefficients of the x terms should be 3x, not 43x
2) The coefficients of the y terms have been multiplied.
3) The constant was left off.
