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 store is having a closing sale. All items in the store are 35% off. Samantha found a jacket she wants to buy with an original
laila [671]

Answer:

The final price paid by Samantha is 55.25 $

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find out the final price of the jacket for Samantha we need to calculate how much 35% of 85 $ is and subtract the original price by it. So we have:

price of discount = 85*(35%) = 85*(35/100) = 85*(0.35) = 29.75 $

Now we can compute the final price by subtracting the original price by the price of discount. So we have:

final price = original price - price of discount = 85 - 29.75 = 55.25 $
