Let b represent blue marbles
g represent green marbles
Then,
We know that there are three times as many blues as green ones, so
b=3g
Next,
the bag contains 280 marbles total, so:
b+g=280 marbles
Substitute b=3g into this equation, to get
3g+g=280 marbles
4g=280 marbles
Divided 4 to each side
4g/4=280/4
g=70 marbles
b=3r
b=3(70)
b=210 marbles
Check:
b=3r
210=3(70)
210=210
b+g=280
210+70=280
280=280. As a result, there area 210 blue marbles. Hope it help!

A heated piece of metal cools according to the function c(x) = (.5)x − 11, where x is measured in hours. A device is added that
e-lub [12.9K]
16.5 degrees below the starting temp, whatever that is. If its 0, then -16.5 degrees.

The first equation would be (.5)5-11=-8.5, because the metal has been cooling for 5 hours.

The device that 'aids' in the cooling would be -5-3=-8, because it is a separate variable that cools the metal, so the amount the device cools is independent of the natural cooling amount, and the equation is independent of the natural cooling equation.
You then add -8.5 and -8, because the device has lowered 8.5 degrees and 8 degrees. This equals -16.5 degrees, or a decrease of 16.5 degrees.
