♂️♂️ -15 a parallel, clarify your question
3x - 4y = 9 and 2x + 3y = 7, which of the following would be the best method?
-5x - 49 > 113
Add 49 to both sides
-5x > 162
Divide both sides by -5
x > -32.4
Hope this helps!
We can set up an equation to solve this problem. I am setting the number of marbles in a red jar to R.
R + R + R - 16 = 41
We solve this by adding 16 to both sides and combining all of the R terms.. This gives us:
3R = 57
We can finish this problem by dividing both sides by 3.
R = 19. So, there are 19 marbles in a red jar.
We can easily figure out how many marbles are in a blue jar by subtracting the total amount of marbles in 2 red jars from the total amount of marbles. I am setting the amount of marbles in a blue jar to B.
41 - 19*2 = B
B = 3
So, there are 3 marbles in a blue jar and 19 marbles in a red jar.
