Lets use 1 to solve this problem because it is easiest to show.

Multiply 1 by 1.3 for a 30% increase (1*1.3=1.3).

Then multiply 1.3 by .7 for a 30% decrease. (1.3*.7=.91)

Therefore the page had a 9% reduction from its original size or is 91% of its original size.

Answer:

Smaller the size you started with

Step-by-step explanation:

Because for example 100 times .30 is 30 100+30=130 and 130 times .30 is 39 100-39=91. 100 > 91

Use the following matrices, A, B, C and D to perform each operation.

Vinvika [58]

Step-by-step explanation:

$A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&1\\5&7\end{array}\right]$

$B=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4&1\\6&0\end{array}\right]$

$C=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&3&1\\-1&0&4\end{array}\right]$

$D=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&3&4\\0&-2&1\\3&4&-1\end{array}\right]$

$1.\\A+B=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&1\\5&7\end{array}\right]+\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4&1\\6&0\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3+4&1+1\\5+6&7+0\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}7&2\\11&7\end{array}\right]$

$2.\\B-A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4&1\\6&0\end{array}\right]-\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&1\\5&7\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4-3&1-1\\6-5&0-7\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0\\1&-7\end{array}\right]$

$3.\\3C=3\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&3&1\\-1&0&4\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}(3)(-2)&(3)(3)&(3)(1)\\(3)(-1)&(3)(0)&(3)(4)\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-6&9&3\\-3&0&12\end{array}\right]$

$4.\\C\cdot D=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&3&1\\-1&0&4\end{array}\right]\cdot\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&3&4\\0&-2&1\\3&4&-1\end{array}\right]\\\\=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}(-2)(-2)+(3)(0)+(1)(3)&(-2)(3)+(3)(-2)+(1)(4)&(-2)(4)+(3)(1)+(1)(-1)\\(-1)(-2)+(0)(0)+(4)(3)&(-1)(3)+(0)(-2)+(4)(4)&(-1)(4)+(0)(1)+(4)(-1)\end{array}\right]\\=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}7&-8&-6\\14&13&-8\end{array}\right]$
