Lets say the number = x

Six times a number is decreased by 9, the result is 3
6 times x is decreased by 9, the result is 3  
(decreased means to subtract and results means equals)

6x - 9 = 3         (add 9 to each side)
    <u> +9    +9</u>
6x = 3 + 9
6x = 12            (divide each side by 6)
6x/6 = 12/6
x = 2


The number is 2

If line L is parallel to plane P ,how many planes containing line L can be drawn parallel to plane P
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Only 1 plane containing line L can be drawn parallel to plane P.

Step-by-step explanation:

Line L is an axis of an infinite number of planes that can contain it. Line L is a straight line suspended over or below plane P.

All the planes that can contain line L would be almost infinte. Spinning around this axis of line L, the planes that can contain line L will be always be at an angle to plane P except for one position. In this position the plane containing Line L would face straight up to the plane P, hence, this is the only parallel case.

Hope this Helps!!!

the length of a rectangle is equal to triple the width . if the perimeter is 8 centimeters .what is the length and the width of
madam [21]

Answer:

Length = 3 cm

Width = 1 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of rectangle be l and width of rectangle be w.

According to problem,

l = 3w  {Length of rectangle is equal to triple the width}

And Perimeter,P = 8 cm

Since, P = 2 ( l + w )

or 8 = 2( l + w)

Plug l =3w in the above perimeter equation.

We get:

8 = 2( 3w + w)

8 = 2(4w)

8 = 8w

or    w = 1 cm

Then length ,l = 3w =3 * 1 = 3 cm

Hence length of rectangle is 3cm and width of rectangle is 1cm.
