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 % decrease in the value gives:
1.5x - 33 %(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 % decrease gives a value that is greater than the original.
Use the fact that integrals are additive on their intervals. Mathematically, if , then
So we have
