If the other number is x, then the first can be expressed as 2x-14. Then the sum of the numbers is
x + 2x - 14 = 67
3x - 14 = 67
3x = 81
x = 27
2x - 14 = 40
The numbers are 27 and 40.

-We need to start by first declaring variables to our numbers. We will use 'a' for the first number and 'b' for the second number.

-These are what the equations would look like because of what was said in the description.


a + b = 67

a = 2b - 14


now we can substitute 'a' into the first equation since it is given to us.

(2b - 14) + b = 67

-Now we can simplify until we get 'b' alone

3b - 14 = 67

3b = 81

b = 27

-Now, substitute 'b' into the first equation and simplify until 'a' is alone.

a + 27 = 67

a = 40

-To check this we can substitute our answers into the second equation since we already know it works on the first one.

(40) = 2(27) - 14

40 = 54 - 14

40 = 40

-So in conclusion your answers would be:

First number (a) = 40

Second number (b) = 27

<span> i'm going to be slightly extra careful in showing each step. specific, ln [n / (n+a million) ]= ln n - ln(n+a million). So, we've sum(n=a million to infinity) ln [n / (n+a million) ] = lim(ok--> infinity) sum(n=a million to ok) ln [n / (n+a million) ] = lim(ok--> infinity) sum(n=a million to ok) [ln n - ln(n+a million)] = lim(ok--> infinity) (ln a million - ln 2) + (ln 2 - ln 3) + ... + (ln ok - ln(ok+a million)) = lim(ok--> infinity) (ln a million - ln(ok+a million)), for the reason that fairly much all the words cancel one yet another. Now, ln a million = 0 and lim(ok--> infinity) ln(ok+a million) is countless. So, the sum diverges to -infinity. IM NOT COMPLETELY SURE

solong [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial velocity(u) = 60 km/hr = 50/3 m/s

final velocity(v)= 0 (stops at rest)

acceleration(a) = -0.05 m/s²

display (s)=?

v²-u²=2as

0²- (50/3)= 2(-0.05)s

2500/9= 0.1s

s= 25000/9 m

A ball is thrown with a slingshot at a velocity of 110 ft./sec. at an angle 20 degrees above the ground from a height of 4.5 ft.
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

T= 2.35 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

⇒The question is on the time of flight.

⇒Time of flight is the time taken for a projected object to reach the ground.It depends on the <u>projectile angle</u> and the <u>initial velocity</u> of the projectile

Given;

Initial velocity of ball= 110ft./sec.

The projectile angle= 20°

Acceleration due to gravity, g=32 ft./s²

⇒Formulae for time of fright T= (2×u×sin Ф)/g

Where T=time of fright, u=initial velocity of projectile, Ф=projectile angle and g=acceleration due o gravity.

<u>Substituting values</u>

T= (2×u×sin Ф)/g

T=( 2×110×sin 20°) / 32

T= 2.35 seconds
