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

Contact [7]

Answer:

The magnitude of the resultant force is:

R=100.3 \:pound

The direction is:

\theta=1.2^{\circ}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the components of each vector is x and y-directions first.

<u>Sum of x-component vector forces.</u>

F_{tot-x}=F_{1}cos(45)+F_{2}cos(30)

F_{tot-x}=50cos(45)+75cos(30)

F_{tot-x}=100.3 \: pound

<u>Sum of y-component vector forces.</u>

F_{tot-y}=-F_{1}sin(45)+F_{2}sin(30)

F_{tot-y}=-50sin(45)+75sin(30)

F_{tot-y}=2.1 \: pound  

The magnitude of the resultant force is:

R=\sqrt{100.3^{2}+2.1^{2}}

R=100.3 \:pound

The direction is:

tan(\theta)=\frac{2.1}{100.3}

\theta=arctan(\frac{2.1}{100.3})

\theta=1.2^{\circ}

I hope it helps you!

A plumbers plastic pipe is 4 m long, has an inside diameter of 4.0 cm and an outside diameter of 5.0cm. What is the volume of th
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer: V=0.0028278\ m^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Length of the pipe l=4\ m

Inside diameter of the pipe d_i=4\ cm

Outside diameter of the pipe d_o=5\ cm

Volume of the pipe

\Rightarrow V=\dfrac{\pi }{4}[d_o^2-d_i^2]\\\\\text{Insert the values}\\\\\Rightarrow V=\dfrac{\pi}{4}[5^2-4^2]\times 10^{-4}\times 4\\\\\Rightarrow V=28.278\times 10^{-4}\ m^3\\\\\Rightarrow V=0.0028278\ m^3

Nezavi [6.7K]

y = 12x + 10

Assuming that your question is multiple choice, the variables might be different.

The reason that it's represented as 12x + 10 is because there is a flat fee of $10 when you sign up. From then on afterward, every month you pay $12.

In this equation, the variable 'y' represents the total cost, while 'x' represents the number of months this service was in use.
