all you have to do is subtract the first number from the second number which is 9. then you add 9 to the last number to get your answer
Answer:
the original number is greater
Step-by-step explanation:
1. let 1x be your starting number
2. therefore, 0.5 * 1x = 0.5x ( amount after you decreased it by 50%)
3. then increase: 0.5x * 1.5 = 0.75x (amount after you increased it by 50%)
4. 0.75x < 1x (this means that the original number is larger than the one you decreased and then increased)
Since x is the x-intercepts, that means x'=x" =6 or in other word the discriminante ( Δ = b² 4ac) =0. Answer is A
