I have a bag with yellow and blue marbles in it. At the moment, the ratio of blue marbles to yellow marbles is 4:3. If I add 5 blue marbles and remove 3 yellow marbles, the ratio will be 7:3. How many blue marbles were in the bag before I added more?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4:7  7 being to total number of marbles (part to whole ratio)

Answer 2

There are 16 blue marbles were in the bag before I added more.

What is mean by Ratio?

A ratio indicates how many times one number contain in another number. The ratio of two number is written as x : y, which is equivalent to x/y. Where, x and y are individual amount of two quantities. And, Total quantity gives after combine as x + y.

Given that;

The ratio of blue marbles to yellow marbles is 4 : 3.

And,  If I add 5 blue marbles and remove 3 yellow marbles, the ratio will be 7:3.

Now,

Since, The ratio of blue marbles to yellow marbles is 4 : 3.

Hence, Number of blue marbles = 4x

Number of yellow marbles = 3x

And, If I add 5 blue marbles and remove 3 yellow marbles, the ratio will be 7:3.

Then, We can formulate;

⇒ 4x + 5 / 3x - 3 = 7x / 3x

⇒ (4x + 5) / (3x - 3) = 7 / 3

⇒ 3 (4x + 5) = 7 (3x - 3)

⇒ 12x + 15 = 21x - 21

⇒ 15 + 21 = 21x - 12x

⇒ 36 = 9x

⇒ x = 4

Thus, The number of blue marbles = 4x

                                                      = 4 × 4

                                                      = 16

Ja'kniya and Alayjah are shopping at the Apple Store. Ja'kniya bought 4 screensavers and 3 Otterboxes for $29. Alayjah bought 6 screensavers and 2 Otterboxes for $26. How much did each screensaver and each Otterbox cost?

Answers

Answer:  Each screensaver costs $2 and each Otterbox costs $7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Cost of each screensaver and y = cost of each Otterbox.

As per given, 4x+3y=29       (i)

6x +2y = 26  (ii)

Divide both sides of (i) by 2 and the multiply it by 3 on sides , we get

9x+3y=39    (iii)

Eliminate (i) from (iii) , we get

5x = 10

⇒ x = 2  [Divide both sides by 5]

Put value of x in (i), we get

4(2)+3y=29

⇒ 8+3y= 29

⇒ 3y= 21

⇒ y =7 [Divide both sides by 7]

Hence, Each screensaver costs $2 and each Otterbox costs $7.

A line passes through the points (6, 8) and (5,5). What is its equation in slope-intercept
form?

Answers

Answer:

y = 3x -10

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the method [tex]\frac{rise}{run}[/tex].

I took a screenshot of the graph below, as an example of the rise over run method.

3 ÷ 1 = 3

To find the y intercept, count down on the graph until you reach the point where the line crosses.

In this case, the line crossed at -10 on the y-axis.

(Look at the second image)

So plug the numbers into the equation, and then you get y = 3x -10.

Answer:

[tex]m\angle N=57^{\circ}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the isosceles-base theorem, the measure of the angles adjacent to the pair of congruent sides of the triangle are equal. Since the problem declares [tex]LM\cong LN[/tex], the remaining unknown angles are equal ([tex]m\angle N=m\angle M[/tex]). The sum of the interior angles of a triangle always add up to [tex]180^{\circ}$[/tex].

Therefore:

[tex]m\angle N\cdot 2+66=180,\\m\angle N\cdot 2=114,\\m\angle N=\fbox{$57^{\circ}$}[/tex] .

Answer:

LMN is rectangle in L so LMN= 180° ; ML=66°;N=?  N= 180°- 66°=114=114/2= 57° so N=57°

Step-by-step explanation:

When the angle at the top is close to 0 °, the two of the base get less than 180 °, or less than 90 ° for each. If the angle at the top is 60 °, the other two are: 180 - 60 = 120 °, and each is: 120/2 = 60 °.

Let x represent the number of years in 2004 and y represent the number of catalogs Catalogs. Number in 2004. Growth rate Online. 7440. 1293 Print. 3805. -1364

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

a)  x represents the number of years since 2004 this means that x = 0 represent the year 2004, y represent the number of catalogs. From the table the numbers of catalogs in 2004 are y-intercepts and the slope is the growth rates. Hence the equations are:

y = 1293x + 7440           (1)

y = -1364x + 3805         (2)

b)

y = 1293x + 7440           (1)

y = -1364x + 3805         (2)

Subtract equation 2 from equation 1 to get:

0 = 2657x + 3635

2657x = -3635

Divide through by 2657

x = -1.368

Put x = -1.368 in equation 1:

y = 1293(-1.368) + 7440

y = 5671.1

This means that about 1.4 years before 2004, the number of catalogs where 5671

Your friend claims that a triangle with side lengths of a, b, and c will have half the area of a triangle with side lengths of 2a, 2b, and 2c. Is your friend correct?

Answers

Answer:

My friend is wrong since, the area of the triangle with sides a, b, c is one-quarter the area of triangle with sides 2a, 2b, 2c

Step-by-step explanation:

Using herons formula, the area of the first triangle with sides a, b, c is A = √[s(s -a)(s - b)(s -c)] where s = (a + b + c)/2.

So, A = √[(a + b + c)/2((a + b + c)/2 - a)((a + b + c)/2 - b)((a + b + c)/2 - c)]

= √[(a + b + c)/2((b + c - a)/2)((a - b + c)/2)((a + b - c)/2)]

= 1/4√[(a + b + c)(b + c - a)(a - b + c)(a + b - c)].

For the triangle with sides 2a, 2b, 2c, the area is A' = √[s'(s' - 2a)(s' - 2b)(s' -c)] where s' = (2a + 2b + 2c)/2 = a + b + c.

So, A' = √[(a + b + c)((a + b + c) - 2a)((a + b + c) - 2b)((a + b + c) - 2c)]

= √[(a + b + c)((b + c - a)(a - b + c)(a + b - c)]

= √[(a + b + c)(b + c - a)(a - b + c)(a + b - c)].

Since A = 1/4√[(a + b + c)(b + c - a)(a - b + c)(a + b - c)]. and A' = √[(a + b + c)(b + c - a)(a - b + c)(a + b - c)] ⇒ A = A'/4

So, the area of the triangle with sides a, b, c is one-quarter the area of triangle with sides 2a, 2b, 2c. So, my friend is wrong.

If Cathy receives all the discounts (30%, 20%, 10%, 15%, and an additional 20% Holiday Bonus Bucks discount, how much will she pay for the $90 sweater?

Answers

Answer:

She will pay $30.8448.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The price of the sweater is $90.

She gets a discount of 30% it means she needs to pay only (100-30)%=70% of $90.

70% of $90 = [tex]0.7\times 90 = 63[/tex]

Now she gets a discount of 20% it means she needs to only 80% of $63.

[tex]0.8\times 63=50.4[/tex]

If she gets a discount of 10% on $50.4 it means she needs to pay 90% of 50.4

[tex]0.9\times 50.4=45.36[/tex]

If she gets a discount of 15% on 45.36 it means she needs to pay only 85% of 45.36

[tex]0.85\times 45.36 =38.556[/tex]

Now she gets an additional 20% holiday Bones Buck discount it means she needs to pay 80% of 38.556

[tex]0.8\times 38.556=30.8448[/tex]

Hence, she will pay $30.8448.

The aquarium where Evan works has a special tank for the baby sharks. The tank is shaped like a rectangular prism and is 18 meters long by 15 meters wide. It is 8 meters from the bottom of the tank to the top. What is the volume of the shark tank?

Answers

Answer:

The volume of the shark tank is [tex]2160 m^3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The tank is in the shape of a rectangular prism.

The length of the tank, [tex]l=18[/tex] m.

The width of the tank, [tex]w=15[/tex] m.

The height of the tank, [tex]h=8[/tex] m.

We know that, volume of a rectangular prism [tex]=l\times w \times h[/tex].

So, the volume of the tank [tex]=18\times 15\times 8=2160 m^3[/tex]

Hence, the volume of the shark tank is  [tex]2160 m^3[/tex].
