Answer:

114 red marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

red: black: total

19      1        19+1 = 20

We have 120 marbles

120/20 = 6

Multiply each  by 6

red: black: total

19 *6   1*6  20*6

114         6       120

Answer:

There are 114 red marbles.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can make a smaller sample of the problem to help evaluate the big one. For every 19 red, there is 1 black. That means the sample size is 20 in total since 19+1 is 20. In other words, for every 20 marbles, 19 of them are red.

Now we can look at the size of 120. 20 goes into 120 6 times. That means there are 6 times as many red marbles. 19x6=114.

There are 114 red marbles.

Answer:

(4,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The object is first at (0,0)

It is reflected across line x=-2, this means you draw the mirror line at x=-2 and count 2 equal units backwards to get the image.The image will be at ;y=0\\\\x=-2-2=-4\\\\\\=(-4,0)

The image (-4,0) is then reflected on the y-axis

You know reflection on the y-axis, the y-coordinate remains the same but the x-coordinate is changed to its opposite sign.

Hence;

(- -4,0)= (4,0)

The image will move 8 units towards positive x-axis.This is the same as moving 4 units from the mirror line at (0,0) and land at (4,0)

What’s that precent 250 of 275
tester [92]

Answer:

Percent 250 of 275 is 90.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find 250 is what percent of 275.

Let X be the percentage, then

=> X =  \frac{250}{275} \times 100

Now simplyfying the above relation we get

=> X =  0.909\times 100

=> => X = 90.9 %

Hence 250 is 90.9% of 275
