Answer:

75% of the original paper’s size.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s say that the original size was 10 inches.

You then increase it by 50%. It is now 15 inches.

Now, you decrease it by 50%. 50% of 15 is 7.5. So, the paper is now 7.5 inches.

7.5 inches is 75% of the original paper size.

I hope I helped!

What is the y-intercept, axis of symmetry and vertex of the following function.
tamaranim1 [39]
To find the y intercept you must substitute 0 into x.

F(x) = (-3x0) - (6x0) - 5
F(x) = -5

To find the axis of symmetry and vertex we use the formula -b/2a to find the x coordinate

x = 6/(-3x2)
x = 6/-6
x = -1

Now we need to find the y coordinate so we sub -1 into x.

F(x) = (-3x-1) - (6x-1) - 5
F(x) = 3 + 6 - 5
F(x) = 4

The axis of symmetry and vertex are (-1,4) and the y coordinate is -5. Hope this helps.

Solve five and three sixths minus two and one third.
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

3 3/18

Step-by-step explanation:

5 3/6-2 1/3

We first need to turn our mixed numbers into fractions by multiplying the while number by the denominator, then adding the numerator. When we do this, 5 3/6 turns into 33/6 and 2 1/3 turns into 7/3. Now we have this:

33/6-7/3

Now we need to find the Least common multiple of the denominators in order to find our common denominator, which in this case is 6. 33/6 already has a denominator of 6, so we do not need to do anything to it. To give a denominator of 6 to 7/3, however, we must multiply by 2, giving us this:

33/6-14/6

Now we can subtract the numerators.

19/6

To turn this back into a mixed number, we divide 19 by 6, which gives us 3 with a remainder of 1. Therefore, our answer is 3 1/6. This is an equivalent fraction to the fourth answer, 3 3/18.

HTH :)
