How much would Mrs. Clason pay for this speaker at Target? Show your work

Kohl = $42

Target = $51.30

Best deal is at Kohl's

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ;

At Kohl's:

Selling price = $60

Friend's and family discount = 30% off

(100 - 30)% * $60

0.7 * 60 = $42

At target :

Purchase price = $38

Markup = 35%

Selling price = (100 + 35)% * $38 = 1.35 * 38 = $51.3

Mrs. Clason will get the best deal at Kohl's.

b. 6

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the table representing an exponential function.

we can see from the table that, as x is increasing, the value of y is increasing in the power of 6.

i.e. the following relation is obtained,

x = 1, y = 6

x = 2, y = 36 =

x = 3, y = 216 =

x = 4, y = 1296 =

x = 5, y = 7776 =

so, the geometric series obtained is .

thus, the common ratio is given by = = 6.

hence, the common ratio is 6.
