Answer 1

I can’t solve either part because the problem statement is missing the numbers (they didn’t come through). Can you repost the full text with the amounts/percentages?

To help, here are the formulas and how I’ll compute each once you give the missing values:

- Part 1 (price before an increase)
- If you are given the final price and the percent increase (r as a decimal), original price = final / (1 + r).
- If you are given the dollar amount of the increase and the percent increase, original price = increase / r.
- Round to the nearest cent.

- Part 2 (percent decrease)
- If price decreases from original P1 to new price P2, percent decrease = ((P1 − P2) / P1) × 100%.
- Round to the nearest whole percent.

Send the missing numbers (or a picture/screenshot), and I’ll compute the answers and pick the multiple‑choice option for you.
