Respuesta :

Answer:

Price of Next Model: $40,872

Price Increase: $1,872

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the price of the next model, we can multiply 39,000 by 4.8 and then divide it by 100 to find how much 4.8% of 39,000 is.

4.8 x 39,000 = 187200

Then, divide 187,200 by 100.

187,200 x 0.01 = 1872

Lastly, add 1872 to 39,000 to find the new price.

1872 + 39,000 = 40,872

Therefore, the price of the next model is $40,872.

The price increase is $1,872.
