Question

The following table shows the expressions that represent the sales of 4 companies

Rank the company sales by smallest to largest percent of increase and select the correct answer below

Answer 1

Answer: A,B,D,C

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze each expression:

Assuming x is the number of years, we have to calculate each equation for x =1:

A = 110 (0.70)^X = 110 (0.70)^1= 77

B = 140 (1.07)^X= 140 (1.07)^1 = 149.8

C =430 (1.90)^x=430 (1.90)^1= 817

D = 310 (1.14)^x= 310 (1.14)^1= 353.4

Comparing the sales:

77(A) < 149.8 (B) <353.4 (D) < 817(C)

So, the correct option is:

A,B,D,C
