Hello!
When I do something with percentages I always look at it as if it was a fraction. When there is a decrease of 20%, it means that you keep 80 percent of the 100 percent, so 80/100. To calculate this, we devide 150 by 100 (1.5) and then multiply by 80 (120)

We do the same thing for January, only this is an increase, so 120 percent. the fraction is 120/100. 120 (where we left off) divided by 100 (1.2) times 120 is 144 members, this is your answer!

Hope this helped you!

Determine whether the given measures can be the lengths of the sides of a triangle write yes or no
ohaa [14]

NO.,the given measures can not be the lengths of the sides of a triangle

Step-by-step explanation

The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side.

so, Find the range for the measure of the third side of a triangle given the measures of two sides.

here given measures are 2,2,6

2+2 = 4 which is less than the third side 6

        = 4 < 6    

This not at all a triangle.

Hence, the given measures can not be the lengths of the sides of a triangle
