Answer:

Week 1 = 80

Week 2 =88

Week 3 = 96.8

Week 4 = 106.48

Week 5 = 117.128

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Week 1 = 80

Growth = 10%

Required

Fill week 1 to 5

We have week 1 already.

Week 2 is calculated as thus:

Week 2 = Week 1 + 10% * Week 1

Week 2 = 80 + 10% * 80

Week 2 = 80 + 8

Week 2 = 88

Week 3 is calculated as thus:

Week 3 = Week 2 + 10% *Week 2

Week 3 = 88 + 10% * 88

Week 3 = 88 + 8.8

Week 3 = 96.8

Week 4 is calculated as thus:

Week 4 = Week 3 + 10% * Week 3

Week 4 = 96.8 * 10% *96.8

Week 4 = 96.8 + 9.68

Week 4 = 106.48

Lastly, week 5 is calculated as thus:

Week 5 = Week 4 + 10% * Week 4

Week 5 = 106.48 + 10% * 106.48

Week 5 = 106.48 + 10.648

Week 5 = 117.128
