Answer:
<u>After a 75% increase, it would become</u>
x + 75%x = x + 0.75x = x(1 + 0.75) = 1.75x
<u>After a 50% decrease, it would become</u>
1.75x - 50%(1.75x) = 1.75x - 0.5(1.75x) = 1.75x - 0.875x = 0.875x = 
Because is less than x, the new amount would be less than the original.

Answer:
C)12 x 108 has the closest value.
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, (7 x 108) + (5 x 105) is equal to 756 + 525 which is equal to 1281.
A)7 x 108= 756
B)12 x 1013= 12156
C)12 x 108=1296
D)7 x 1013=7091
Assume the smaller one is x, then the other ones will be x+2 and x+4
x(x+2) + 2 = 5(x+4)
x^2 + 2x - 5x - 18 = 0
-> x^2 - 3x - 18 = 0
-> (x-6)(x+3) = 0
-> x = 6 or -3, since x must be positive, then x = 6
So the numbers are: 6, 8, 10
