16x11 which equals 176 so that’s the area
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)
Seems like you’re gonna fail
Answer: There are no solutions.
Step-by-step explanation: x - 5/3 = x - 3/5
x + -5/3 = x + -3/5
x + -5/3 - x = x + -3/5 - x
-5/3 = -3/5
-5/3 + 5/3 = -3/5 + 5/3
0 = 16/15
