Answer:
A. (55 x 5) - (40 x 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
You are solving how much miles (further along) would the second car be after 5 hours.
The first car averages 40 miles per hour. 5 hours later, it will have averaged about 200 miles in 5 hours (40 x 5 = 200).
The second car averages 55 miles per hour. 5 hours later, it will have averaged about 275 miles in 5 hours (55 x 5 = 275)
Subtract: 275 - 200 = 75
The second car would have averaged 75 more miles than the first car.

Answer:
the original number is greater
Step-by-step explanation:
1. let 1x be your starting number
2. therefore, 0.5 * 1x = 0.5x ( amount after you decreased it by 50%)
3. then increase: 0.5x * 1.5 = 0.75x (amount after you increased it by 50%)
4. 0.75x < 1x (this means that the original number is larger than the one you decreased and then increased)
