Respuesta :

The predicted cost of a cell phone in September is $166.42

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Current price of cell phone = $62.80

Expected increase = 165%

Amount of increase = 165% of current price

Amount of increase = [tex]\frac{165}{100}*62.80[/tex]

Amount of increase = [tex]1.65*62.80[/tex]

Amount of increase = $103.62

Predicted cost = Current cost + Amount of expected increase

Predicted cost = 62.80 + 103.62 = $166.42

The predicted cost of a cell phone in September is $166.42
