Answer:

The first amount is larger by 25%  or .25a

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets increase a by 50%

The increase is .5a

So the new value is a + .5a = 1.5a

Now we will decrease the new value by 50%

decrease = .5 (1.5a) = .75a

The new value of a is 1.5a - .75a = .75a

a > .75a

a - .75a = .25a

a is bigger than .75a by .25a

4 + 6x + 5 = 7x Could someone help me? Thanks :) And could you also show how u did it

Answer:

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

combine like terms

4+6x+5=7x

4+5=9

9+6x=7x

to get 6x with 7x subtract 6x from both sides as its positive

6x-6x=0

7x-6x=x

9=x

x=9

16. Find the value of y. ​
devlian [24]

y + (2x -12) = 180 (since they are supplementary angles)

(2x-12) = 96 ( since they are alternate exterior angle)

2x = 96 + 12

2x = 108

x = 108/2

x = 54.

y+( 2x-12)=180

y+(2× 54 -12) = 180

y + (108-12) = 180

y + 96 = 180

y= 180-96

y = 84.
