Barry's Bagel Emporium sells a dozen bagels for $5.00. This price is no longer high enough to create a profit. The
owner decides to raise the price. He does not want to alarm his customers with too large of an increase. He is
considering four different plans.
Plan A: Raise the price by $0.05 each week until the price reaches $8.00.
Plan B: Raise the price by 10 percent each week until the price reaches $8.00
Plan C: Raise the price by the same amount each week for 6 weeks, so that in the sixth week the price is $8.00.
Plan D: Raise the price by $0.25 each week until the price reaches $8.00
Which plan will result in the price of the bagels reaching $8.00 fastest?
plan A
plan B
plan c
plan D

The price of the Bagels reaches $8 the fastest in 6 weeks, obtained by following plan C

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

Given,

Current price of the Bagel = $5

Planned price of the Bagel = $8

Step 2 :

Plan A

The price is raised by $0.05 each week until the price reaches $8.00

The number of weeks the price rise has to happen to reach $8 =  8÷ 0.05

                                                                                                        = 160 weeks

Step 3 :

Plan B

The price is raised by 10 percent each week until the price reaches $8.00

10% of $ 8 = $0.8

So the price has to be raised by $.8 every week

The number of weeks the price rise has to happen to reach $8 =  8÷ 0.0.8

                                                                                                        = 10 weeks

Step 4 :

Plan C

Raise the price by the same amount each week for 6 weeks, so that in the sixth week the price is $8.00.

The number of weeks the price rise has to happen to reach $8 =  6 weeks

Step 5 :

Plan D

The price is raised by $0.25 each week until the price reaches $8.00

The number of weeks the price rise has to happen to reach $8 =  8÷ 0.25

                                                                                                        = 32 weeks

Step 6 :

Answer :

From all the steps above we can see that,

The price of the Bagels reaches $8 the fastest in 6 weeks, obtained by following plan C

the answer is d. (1.2, -4.7) on edgn

hope this !

total amount to be paid = $19.5

step-by-step explanation:

given ,

original price = $25.99

discount = 25%

discount amount = 25% of original price

discount amount = 25/100   * 25.99

discount amount = $6.49

hence , the total amount to be paid = original price - discount amount

                                                            = $25.99 - $6.49

                                                            =$19.5

total amount to be paid = $19.5
