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!

The supplement of an angle is three times the measure of the angle.
stira [4]

Answer: The angle equals  45 ∘  and the supplement is  135 ∘

Explanation:

Since the supplement is three times the angle, we can say    s  =  3 a

Since we know the supplement is  

180 − a , we can plug that in.

180 - a = 3a

180  = 4 a  (add  a  to both sides)

45  =  a  (divide both sides by  4)

Since we know the angle now, all we have to do is multiply it times  3  to find the supplement.

45  ×  3  =  135
