You can put this solution on YOUR website!
it is a 20% increase in the number of bikes being sold, increase (2) over original amount (10).
\n" ); document.write( "In a given week, the revenue for bikes sold is $6400
\n" ); document.write( "On a sale week, the revenue for bikes sold is $7200\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "In 26 weeks, there are 20 weeks with $6400 revenue ($128,000) and 6 weeks with $7200 ($43200), for a total of $171,200.
\n" ); document.write( "In 26 weeks of sales, the revenue is $7200/week or $187,200.
\n" ); document.write( "$16000 more, which is the same answer as $800 more per sale week and 20 more sale weeks in 6 months. \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
