5 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of blue marbles be x

The number of green marbles = 3x - 2

Total marbles= 18

x + 3x -2 = 18

4x - 2 = 18

     4x = 18+2

      4x = 20

x =20/4

x =5

The number of blue marbles = 5

The number of green marbles = 3*5 - 2 = 15 -2 = 13

How do you use the slope to prove lines are parallel or perpendicular?
Vesna [10]
For this, there is two rules. The common slope-intercept form is y=ax + b. For parallel, b can change, but a, or the slope, can't change. But for perpendicular, the a should be -1/a, where the answer for times the original equation, or a, and the second equation, or -1/a, is -1. To prove these two rules, you can graph it using random numbers but follow these two rules. if you have any part that don't understand for this answer, feel free to ask in the "Ask for details" section.

When Raphael solved the system below by using the method of elimination, he changed the second equation to -8x-2y=-2 what proper
galben [10]
For this case, what we are going to do is use the following property:
 Multiply an equation by a scalar.
 In this case, the scalar will be:
 k = -2
 We have then that equation 2 will be:
 k * (4x + y) = k * 1
 -2 * (4x + y) = - 2 * 1
 -8x-2y = -2
 Answer:
 The property that justifies this manipulation is:
 Multiply an equation by a scalar.
