Answer:
33 1/3 percent smaller
Step-by-step explanation:
The number a exceeds the number b by 50 percent.
a = b + b*.5
a = b(1.5)
Divide by 1.5
a/1.5 = b
2/3a =b
We want to find (a-b)/a to find the percent decrease
(a-2/3a)/a *100percent
(1/3a)/a* 100 percent
1/3 * 100 percent
33 1/3 percent smaller
150
explain:
100/28*42=x which turns into x=150

Answer:
5sqrt3
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the pythagorean theorem, we have a^2+4^2=9^2
a^2 + 16 = 81
a^2 = 75.
a = sqrt75.
75 = 25*3. 25 is a perfect square, so sqrt75 = 5sqrt3
They want to make a total of $1200.
55*10=550
55*8=440
440-550=990
1200-990=210
210/35=6
So they should sell the other plants for $6 each.
