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!

Let me know if you need anything else!

Point N is on line segment MO. Given MO = 3x - 10, NO = x, and M N = 8,
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

MO = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to define what if the unknown x.

segment MN and NO are equal to MO.

thus, your equation for the combination is x +8

Now set the values equal to each other

x + 8 = 3x - 10 (subtract x from both sides)

8 = 2x - 10 ( get your x value alone, add 10 to both sides)

18 = 2x (simplfy)

x = 9

Now plug x value into MO

3 (9) - 10 = 17

Check with opposing equation:

9 + 8 = 17 √
