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

Answer:

  2πr cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference of a circle of radius r is ...

  C = 2πr

For a radius of (r cm), the circumference is ...

  A = 2π(r cm) = 2πr cm

For a radius of (2r cm), the circumference is ...

  B = 2π(2r cm) = 4πr cm

Then the difference between the circumferences is ...

  B -A = (4πr cm) -(2πr cm) = 2πr cm . . . . difference in circumference
