<span>If
a quantity increases by 25% and then decreases by 25%, will that result be the
original quantity? Explain.
Let’s try to be able to know the answer:
=> Let’s have 10 as the value
Increase by 25%
=> 10 + 25%
=> 10 * .25 = 2.5
=> 10 + 2.5 = 12.5 the new value
Now, decrease this by 25%
=> 12.5 – 25%
=> 12.5 * .25 = 3.125
=> 12.5 – 3.125 = 9.375 or 9.4
Thus, the given statement is false.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a trapezium is given as;
Area = 
(a + b)h
where: a is the length of the upper side, b is the length of its base and h is its height.
This implies that; a = x - 4, b = x + 5, h = 2x and area = 351
Thus,
351 = ((x - 4) + (x + 50)) 2x
= (x - 4 + x + 5) x
531 = (2x + 1) x
= 2
+ x
So that;
2 + x - 531 = 0
This gives a quadratic equation.
Height is 18 for question 3.
Using pie to solve:
Circumference: 43.98 (rounded)
Area: 153.94 (rounded)
Using 3.14 for pie
Circumference: 43.96
Area: 153.86
