A bag contains purple marbles and red marbles, 34 in total. The number of purple marbles is 2 more than 3 times the number of re
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

There are 26 purple marbles in the bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, you have to make an expression in terms of x where x represent red marbles. Given that the question says purple marbles is 2 more than 3 times the number of red marbles. So the expression is :

Let red marbles = x,

purple = 2 + 3x

red = x

Next, given that the total marbles in the bag is 34 so you have to add both marbles together and solve the value of x :

2 + 3x + x = 34

4x = 32

x = 32 \div 4

x = 8

Lastly, you have to substitute the value of x into the expression of purple marbles :

Let x = 8,

purpe = 2 + 3(8)

purple = 26

Divide using long division. Checky<br> (x3+ 3x2 + x - 9) = (x - 1)
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

x squared plus 2x minus 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

x3+3x2+x-9 is in the division "house" and x-1 is on the outside. xsquare times x equals x cubed. and x square times negative 1 equals -x squsre. put x square on top of the roof. change the signs. the x cubed cancels out. and bring down 2x square from subtracting 3x square and -x square and bring down the x-9. Put 2x on top of the roof too and 2x times x equals 2x square and multiply by -1. U will have 2x square -2x square and -2x plus x which equals -1x cuz the 2x square cancels out. bring down the -9. Now i have -1x-9. Multiply by -1 and put -1 on the roof. -1x+1x cancels out. and -1 times -1 equals positive 1. So -9+1=8. U van do any further cause as soon as the last number is at the end of the roof and u cant go further, ur done dividing. so the answer is x square+2x-1/×-1 +8 as the remainder. hope i helped

Kamil and Sean share some money in the ratio 3:5. Sean gets $56 more than Kamil. How much do they get each?
liq [111]
Let Kamil get x. Therefore Sean would get (x + 56).

Kamil and Sean are in the ratio:        3:5

That means:    x : (x + 56) = 3 : 5

x / (x + 56) = 3/5

5*x = 3*(x + 56)

5x = 3*x + 3*56

5x = 3x + 168

5x - 3x = 168

2x = 168

x = 168 / 2

x = 84

Therefore Kamil had, x = 84,  and Sean had (x + 56) = 84 + 56 =  140

Kamil had $84 and Sean had $140
