The next model of a sports car will cost 12.1% less than the current model the current model cost $52,000 how much will the price decrease in dollars what will be what will be the price of the next model

In order to find the decrease in price, we need to multiply the cost of the current model ($52000) by 12.1%.
First, let's remember that:
12.1% = 12.1/100 = 0.121
So, we have:
Decrease in price = $52000 * 0.121
=$52 * 1000 * 0.121
= $52 * 121
= $6292
Now, the price of the next model will be the price of the current one minus the decrease:
Price of next model = $52000 - $6292
= $45708
Therefore, the answers are:
Decrease in price: $6,292
Price of next model: $45,708
