After modelling the mathematical statement and solving its equivalent mathematical relation, we get x = -36.

<h3>What is Equation Modelling?</h3>

Equation modelling is the process of writing a given mathematical statement in the form of a numeric mathematical expression taking into considerations the operations, constants and other variables.

Given in the question is a number such that twice the difference of a number and 9 is equal to three times the sum of the number and 6.

Assume that the number is x. Now, we will model the equation and solve for x. According to the question, the following mathematical relation represents the statement-

2(x - 9) = 3(x + 6)

2x - 18 = 3x + 18

x = - 36

Therefore, the number is -36.

Find the following limit or state that it does not exist. ModifyingBelow lim With x right arrow minus 2 StartFraction 3 (2 x min
leva [86]

Answer:

-60

Step-by-step explanation:

The objective is to state whether or not the following limit exists

                                \lim_{x \to -2}  \frac{3(2x-1)^2 - 75}{x+2}.

First, we simplify the expression in the numerator of the fraction.

3(2x-1)^2 -75 = 3(4x^2 - 4x +1) -75 = 12x^2 - 12x + 3 - 75 = 12x^2 - 12x -72

Now, we obtain

                         12(x^2-x-6) = 12(x+2)(x-3)

and the fraction is transformed into

                       \frac{3(2x-1)^2 - 75}{x+2} =  \frac{12(x+2)(x-3)}{x+2} = 12 (x-3)

Therefore, the following limit is

       \lim_{x \to -2}  \frac{3(2x-1)^2 - 75}{x+2} = \lim_{x \to -2}  12(x-3) = 12 \lim_{x \to -2} (x-3)

You can plug in -2 in the equation, hence

                        12 \lim_{x \to -2} (x-3) = 12 (-2-3) = -60

The density of titanium is 4.51 g/cm^3
forsale [732]

The volume of titanium is 20.86 cubic inches

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

The volume is given by formula:

volume = \frac{mass}{density}

From given,

Density of titanium = 4.51 g/cm^3

Mass = 3.4 lb

Let us convert the mass to grams

1 pound = 453.592 grams

Therefore, 3.4 pound is equal to:

3.4 \text{ pound } = 3.4 \times 453.592 \text{ grams }\\\\3.4 \text{ pound } = 1542.2128\text{ grams }

Now substitute the values into formula:

volume = \frac{1542.2128}{4.51}\\\\volume = 341.95 cm^3

Let us convert cubic centimeter to cubic inches

1 cubic centimeter = 0.0610237 cubic inches

Therefore,

341.95\ cm^3 =  0.0610237 \times 341.95\ in^3 = 20.86\ in^3

Thus volume of titanium is 20.86 cubic inches
