If I 50% increase is followed by a 33 1\3 % decrease is it greater, less than, or the same as the original

Mathematics

luda_lava [24]2 years ago

Answer:

Greater than.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original value be x.

A 50% increase in x is given by

x + 50%x

=> x + 0.5x

=> 1.5x

Followed by a 33 \frac{1}{3} % decrease in the value gives:

1.5x - 33 \frac{1}{3} %(1.5x)

=> 1.5x - 0.33(1.5x)

=> 1.5x - 0.495x

=> 1.005x

Since 1.005x is greater than the original value, x, then:

A 50% increase followed by a 33 \frac{1}{3} % decrease gives a value that is greater than the original.

Mack the bug starts at (0,0) at noon and each minute moves one unit right or one unit up. He is trying to get to the point (5,7)
PSYCHO15rus [73]
<span>This is a very nice counting question. Suggestion / Hint: Count how many ways he can get from (0,0) to (5,7) by going through the point (2,3). Then subtract that from ALL POSSIBLE ways he can get from (0,0) to (5,7). Hint for the hint: How many ways he can get from (0,0) to (5,7) by going through the point (2,3)? Well, that's the SUM of how many ways he can get from (0,0) to (2,3) and how many ways he get get from (2,3) to (5,7). Hope this helps! :)</span>

Let p=x^2-2 which equation is equivalent to (x^2-2)^2+18=9x^2-18 in terms of p
Bad White [126]

Answer:

The equivalent equation is p^2 + 18 = 9p

Step-by-step explanation:

p is given by the following relation:

p = x^2 - 2

And we are given the following equation:

(x^2 - 2)^2 + 18 = 9x^2 - 18

On the right side, we can simplify. So

(x^2 - 2)^2 + 18 = 9(x^2 - 2)

Replacing x^2 - 2 by p, the equation is:

p^2 + 18 = 9p
