Ratio:

Red : Total 
  2   :    5
 (x2)    (x2)
  4   :   10

Green : Total
  3   :       10

Total of red and green marbles = 4 + 3 = 7

Blue marbles = 10 - 7 = 3

10 parts = 40 marbles
1 part = 40 ÷ 10 = 4
3 parts = 4 x 3 = 12

Answer: There are 12 blue marbles.

serg [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This could be an observational study because an experiment was not carried out by the research to further verify this hypothesis. Individuals are observed and data is collected from such observation. No effort is made by the researcher to affect the outcome of such results.

This study alone is not enough to conclude about a cause and effect relationship between steroids and the increase in home​ runs as thus study is not randomized and cant control other factors or links bringing about this result.

Which choice is the equation of a line that passes through the point (–6, –2) and is perpendicular to the line represented by th
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

  B.  y = 1/3x

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the given line is -3, so the slope of the perpendicular line will be the negative reciprocal of that: -1/(-3) = 1/3. This eliminates choices A and C.

We can find the y-intercept (b) if we use the given point values in the equation ...

  y = 1/3x +b

we get ...

  -2 = (1/3)(-6) +b

  -2 = -2 +b . . . simplify

  0 = b . . . . . . . add 2

So, the equation of the perpendicular line through the given point is ...

  y = 1/3x . . . . matches choice B

_____

<em>Alternate solution method</em>

You can try the given point in the given equations. You will find that only the equation of choice B will work.

Nissan Appliances bought two dozen camcorders at a total cost of $3,816. The markup on the camcorders is 25% of the selling pric
Lerok [7]
So first you do 3,816 divided by 12 , because you need to find how much for 1 so then you can find out 25% off of 1. To check your work put down 318 times 12 to prove that you're right. Which would be 318 times 25 = 79.5. If you use a calculator it won't have the decimals ( if you just do the numbers ), but the rest is above.
