Mark and Don have to sell 11 and 59 marbles respectively.

<em><u>Explanation</u></em>

Lets assume, the number of marbles Mark has  is x

As, Don has 4 more than 5 times the number of marbles mark has, so the number of marbles Don has = 5x+ 4

Question says that the total number of marbles is 70. So, the equation will be...

x+(5x+4)= 70\\ \\ 6x+4= 70 \\ \\ 6x = 70-4\\ \\ 6x=66 \\ \\ x= \frac{66}{6}= 11

<em>So, the number of marbles Mark has = 11 </em>

<em>and the number of marbles Don has = (5*11)+4 = 55+4= 59</em>

Reflect (-1, 4) over the x-axis.
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

(- 1, - 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

under a reflection in the x- axis

a point (x, y ) → (x, - y ) , then

(- 1, 4 ) → (- 1, - 4 )

a translation of 3 units up means adding 3 to the y- coordinate , so

(- 1, - 4 ) → (- 1, - 4 + 3 ) → (- 1, - 1 )
