We can set up a proportion since we know the ratio between the # of purple marbles and the # of green marbles.

A ratio is a way to compare two different values: for every 8 purple marbles there are 5 green marbles

<h2>\frac{8}{5} = \frac{p}{30}</h2><h2 /><h2>when we cross multiply, we get 5p = 240 </h2><h2>we divide both sides by 5 to isolate the variable </h2><h2 /><h3><u>There are 48 purple marbles </u></h3>

Will ran the diagonal distance across a square field measuring 40 yards on each side. James ran the diagonal distance across a r
slamgirl [31]

Will ran the longest

He ran for 56.57 yards, 13.56 yards longer than James.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

Will ran the diagonal across a square field measuring 40 yards in each side.

The diagonal of a square can be obtained by the square root of the sum of the squares of its 2 sides [Because it forms the hypotenuse of a right angle triangle]

Hence when the side is 40 yards , the diagonal would be

\sqrt{40^{2} + 40^{2}}  = \sqrt{1600 + 1600}   = \sqrt{3200}  =56.57 yards

So Will ran for 56.57 yards

Step 2 :

James ran the diagonal of a rectangular field with 25 yards length and 35 yards width.

The diagonal of the rectangle can be obtained by the square root of the sum of squares of its length and width.

Hence when the length is 25 yards and width is 35 , the diagonal would be

\sqrt{35^{2} + 25^{2}}  = \sqrt{1225 + 625}} = \sqrt{1850} = 43.01 yards

So James ran for 43.01 yards

Step 3 :

Will ran for 56.57 yards and 43.01 yards.

Hence Will ran for longer distance of 56.57 yards, which is 13.56 yards more than James.

Which equation is equivalent to 3[x+3(4x-5)]=15x-24
Klio2033 [76]
3[x+3(4x-5)]=15x-24; x+12x-15=5x-8 (divide both sides by 3); 8x=7 (move all the x's to one side), x=7/8
