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.

Answer:
Option (1).
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount of water hold by both the pitchers (Large + small) = 12 cups
Let the small pitcher holds the water = S cups
If the water hold by the large pitcher is twice the size of the small pitcher, then the amount of water hold by large pitcher = 2S
Total amount water hold by both = S + 2S
Equation for this situation will be,
S + 2S = 12
Therefore, Option (1) will be the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-52, and the opposite of this is 52.
Step-by-step explanation:
If we are losing 52 pounds, then our number is -52 since we are losing 52 pounds (adding a negative number to a positive number is the same as subtracting that number).
The opposite of a number is when we negate the number, or multiply it by -1.
A negative number times a negative number is a positive number.

Hope this helped!
Y=-3 on the graph question
Equation for the parallel line through (9,-11) is y=-2/3x-5
The slope intercept form of -8x=2-2y is y=4x+1
The equation of a perpendicular line through (15,8) is y=-7/5x+29 :)
