There are 27 red or blue marbles in a bag. The number of red marbles is five less than three times the number of blue marbles. H
sveticcg [70]

The number of red marbles in the bag is 19 and the number of blue marbles is 8.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Let R be the number of red marbles

Let B be the number of blue marbles

According to the question,

R + B = 27 (Total number of marbles is 27 )                 -1

R = 3B - 5 (Number of red marbles is 5 less than 3 times the number of blue marbles )

Substitute the right half of the second equation for R in the first equation

3B - 5 + B = 27

Add 5 to each side and combine the Bs

4B = 32

Divide both sides by 4

B = 8

Use this value of B in the first equation

R + 8 = 27

R = 19

Therefore, number of red marbles in the bag is 19 and the number of blue marbles is 8.

A tree is supported by HELP! a wire anchored in the ground 9 feet from its base. the wire is 1 foot longer than the height that
olga55 [171]
For a right triangle with legs legnth a and b and hyptonuse c
a^2+b^2=c^2
9 feet from base, that's one leg
wire is hypotnuse, it's 1 more than height on tree
c=b+1

so
9^2+b^2=(b+1)^2
81+b^2=b^2+2b+1
minus b^2+1 from both sides
80=2b
divide both sides by 2
40=b
c=b+1
c=40+1
c=41
legnth of wire is 41ft
