Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's represent the total number of marbles with the variable t. We have the following information.

1/2t+1/6t+8=t (1/2 of total are red, 1/6 of total are blue, 8 are white, add them up to get total)

Now, we solve for t.

1/2t+1/6t+8=t

We combine like terms.

2/3t+8=t

We subtract t from both sides.

-1/3t+8=0

We subtract 8 from both sides.

-1/3t=-8

We divide both sides by -1/3.

t=24

Therefore, there ae 24 total marbles in the bag.

Have a wonderful day! :D

The parent function of the function g(x) = (x – h)2 + k is f(x) = x2. The vertex of the function g(x) is located
Katen [24]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (h, k) = (9, -8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The function g(x) is "vertex form" for a quadratic whose vertex is (h, k). We are told the vertex is (9, -8), so we have ...

  (h, k) = (9, -8) . . . . the values of h and k

A barrel of crude oil contains about 5.61 cubic feet of oil. How many barrels of oil contained in 1 mile (5280 feet) of a pipeli
8_murik_8 [283]
1)volume of the  pipeline

The pipeline is a cylinder, therefore;
Volume (cylinder)=πr²h
r=radius
h=height of the cylinder

diameter=6 in*(1 ft / 12 in)=0.5 ft
raius=diameter / 2=0.5 ft / 2=0.25 ft.
height=5280 ft

Volume (pipeline)=π(0.25 ft)²(5280 ft)=330π ft³≈1036.73 ft³.


2) we calculate the number of barrel
1 mile of oil in this pipeline is 330π ft³ of oil.

1 barrel of crude------------------5.61 ft³
x----------------------------------330π ft³

x=(1 barrel*330π ft³) / 5.61 ft³=184.8 barrels

3) we calculate the price.

1 barrel---------------$100
184.8 barrels----------  x

x=(184.8 barrels * $100) / 1 barrel=$18,480

Solution: ≈$18,480

The answer and how to do it.
Kruka [31]

let x = orginal price of the shorts

$21 = x(100%-20%) * 1.05

$21 = x(80%) * 1.05

$21 = 0.8x * 1.05

Subtract 1.05 from both sides

$19.95 = 0.8x

Divide 0.8 from both sides

$24.9375 = x

So the orginal price of the shorts are about $24.94
