Answer:

number = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "number" = x. Set the equation.

"product of 2 and number" = 2(x)

"nine less" = -9

"equal to 7" = "= 7"

2x - 9 = 7

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Add 9 to both sides.

2x - 9 (+9) = 7 (+9)

2x = 7 (+9)

2x = 16

Divide 2 from both sides.

(2x)/2 = (16)/2

x = 16/2

x = 8

8 is your answer.

A model ship is built to a scale of 1 cm : 5m. The length of the model is 25 cm. What is the length of the actual ship?
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

<em>The length of the actual ship is 125 meters.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Scaling</u>

Objects can be represented in a reduced or augmented size by using scaling which is basically multiplying or dividing by a constant factor. We use scaling for example, when representing geographic locations on a map.

A model ship is built to a scale of 1 cm: 5 m. This means that each centimeter of the model represents an actual length of 5 m.

The length of the model is 25 cm, thus the real ship has a length of 25*5 = 125 m.

The length of the actual ship is 125 meters.
