Answer:

  33

Step-by-step explanation:

8 subtracted from the number is ...

  x -8

and 4/5 of that value is ...

  4/5(x -8)

The equation will say this result is 20:

  4/5(x -8) = 20

__

Multiplying by 5/4, we get ...

  x -8 = 25

  x = 33 . . . . . . add 8

The number, x, is 33.

The amount of force one exerts on a wrench handle to loosen a bolt is inversely
Inessa [10]

Answer:

a)

F =  \frac{1152}{l}

b) l=19.2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

a)Let F represent the force and l represents the length of the wrench handle.

Then inverse variation relation is:

F\propto \:  \frac{1}{l}

When we introduce the variation constant, we get:

F =  \:  \frac{k}{l}

From the question when F=96, l=12

96=  \:  \frac{k}{12}

k = 1152

The equation is

F =  \:  \frac{1152}{l}

b) If a person can only exert 60 pounds of force on a wrench,then

60 =  \frac{1152}{l}

\implies \: l =  \frac{1152}{60}

l = 19.2

Hence the length of the wrench must be 19.2 units
