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:x = 9/16
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 3 = 6x - 4
/3
First you gotta get rid of the divided by 3
2x / 3 = 2/3x and 3 / 3 = 1
Now you have
2/3x + 1 = 6x - 4
Second you have to get rid of the 2/3x on the left side
2/3x + 1 = 6x - 4
-2/3x -2/3x
1 = 5 1/3x - 4
Third you have to get rid of the -4
1 = 5 1/3x - 4
-4 -4
-3 = 5 1/3x
Fourth you have to divide by 5 1/3
-3 = 5 1/3x
/ 5 1/3 / 5 1/3
x = 9/16
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
by question
5x+2=17
5×=15
×=3
You multiply the two side lengths for area
To get 52x^3y
To find perimeter you add all the side lengths to get 8x^2+26x
Remember that you can do anything ot an equaiton as long as you do it to both sides
-8+x=0
add 8 to both sides
8-8+x=0+8
0+x=8
x=8
answer is B. 8
