Compare: X and X decreased by 50% and then increased by 50% of the result

Mathematics
1 answer:
kaheart [24]2 years ago
5 0

Step-by-step explanation:

100% = X

50% = 100%/2 = X/2

X decreased by 50 means X - 50% = X - X/2 = X/2

now,

100% = X/2

50% = 100%/2 = X/2 / 2 = X/(2×2) = X/4

increasing the previous result by 50% means

X/2 + 50% = X/2 + X/4 = 2X/4 + X/4 = 3X/4

so, comparing this to the original X (= 4X/4), we are X/4 short.

Solve for c.<br> a(c+b) = d.
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

we assume that a is different from 0 otherwise there is not much we can say on c and then we can write

a(c+b)=d

<=> ac+ab=d

<=> ac = d - ab

<=> c = \dfrac{d-ab}{a} =\dfrac{d}{a}-b

Hope this helps
