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
Answer:

Answer:
x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
combine like terms

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
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.
