Answer:

Let x = number of white marbles and y = number of yellow marbles.

x + y = 57  => x = 57 - y

Also, x = 3 + 5y

Substitute x for y.

57 - y = 3 + 5y => 57 - 3 = 54 = 6y

So, y = 9

Since x (our answer) = 3 + 5 (9),

x = 48.

Check: 48 + 9 = 57 total

the equation of a line is y=-1/2x-2. what is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the first line and passes through
Alexxandr [17]
Perpendicular means that the slopes are negartive inverses, aka
slope1 times slope2=-1

y=mx+b
slope=m

y=-1/2x-2
slope=-1/2

we need to find negative inverse
-1/2 times what=-1
answer is 2

y=2x+b
input the point (2,-2) to find b
(x,y)
(2,-2)
-2=2(2)+b
-2=4+b
minus 4 from both sides
-6=b
y=2x-6

the equtaion is y=2x-6
