The larger of two numbers is 1 more than twice the

Mathematics
1 answer:
stellarik [79]2 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Let the smaller number be x and the larger number be 2x+1.

According to the question,

The sum of the numbers is 20 less than three

times the larger.

i.e x + (2x+1)= 3*(2x+1) - 20

or, x + 2x +1 = 6x + 3 -20

or, 3x + 1 = 6x - 17

or, 3x = 18

or x= 18/3

x = 6

And 2x+1 = 2*6+1 = 13.

Therefore the smaller number is 6 and larger number is 13.

Hope it helps!

Solve the inequality. 1/2 + x + 1/6 is greater than or equal to 1.
Andrew [12]

1/2 + x + 1/6 > = 1

First add the 2 fractions:

1/2 + 1/6 = 2/3

Now you have:

2/3 + x > =1

Subtract 2/3 from both sides:

x >= 1 - 2/3

X > = 1/3

A cube-shaped water tank having 6 ft side lengths is being filled with water. The bottom is solid metal but the sides of the tan
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

0.033 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let g = 32.2 ft/s2 and h be the maximum height that water can be filled before the sides shatter.

Pressure is distributed from 0 to maximum at the bottom like the following equation:

P = \rho gh

So the force generated by water pressure on the side of the tank is

F = PA = \rho ghs/2

where s = 6ft is the side length of the tank. This force cannot be larger than 200lb

\rho ghs/2 \leq 200

62.4*32.2*h*6/2 \leq 200

h \leq 0.033 ft

Which equality statement is FALSE? A) 1 = −[−(1)] B) −(−14) = 14 C) 7 = −[−(7)] D) −1 = −(−1)
Elodia [21]
D is false.

-1 = -(-1)

When you negate the negative on the left, you get a positive 1, not a negative 1.
