Answer:Hi,

Let the number be x

Twice the number is 2x

Five less than twice the number is 2x-5, which is given as 9

Therefore, 2x-5 = 9

or, 2x = 9+5

or, 2x = 14

or x=7

Thus the number is 7.

Cheers

Natali [406]

Answer:

probability that their average salary is more than $77,500 is 0.1587

Step-by-step explanation:

standard error

= 10,000/sqrt(16)

=10,000/4

= 2500 

(77,500 - 75000)/2500

2,500/2500

= 1 

p (z > 1) = .1587

So, the probability that their average salary is more than $77,500 is 0.1587

Two points A and B on a plan represent two localities 12 m apart. Given that the segment AB is 6cn long, find the scale used to
natka813 [3]

Answer:

The scale is 1:200

Step-by-step explanation:

On the plan we have the drawing as 6 cm

In real representation, we have the distance as 12 m

Firstly we have to convert to same unit

In this case, we use the cm for convenience

Mathematically, 100 cm is 1 m

Thus, 12 m

will be 12 * 100 = 1,200 cm

So, we have the ratio as;

6 cm : 1,200 cm

and that is 1:200 (since 6/1200 = 1/200 and in ratio form, we have that as 1:200)

BRAINLIEST FOR AN ACTUAL ANSWER
Andreyy89

Answer:

The correct pair of functions is the third one:  h(x)=(x−24)^2 and g(x)=x2

Step-by-step explanation:

Example:  If we have q(x) = x^2 and its graph, moving the vertex of this graph 24 units to the right results in r(x) = (x - 24)^2.

The correct pair of functions is the third one:  h(x)=(x−24)^2 and g(x)=x2

Note:  the fourth pair is incorrect, because the " + " sign moves the graph of x^2 24 units to the left.
