Let x be the number of white marbles and y be the number of blue marbles. 
So, x+y=79
Also, x = 4y-6 since "<span>the number of white marbles is 6 less than 4 times the number of blue marbles</span>"
We will solve the above system o two equation:
Using the value of x from the second equation in the first equation we get:
(4y-6)+y=79\\5y=79+6\\5y=85\text{ then }y=\frac{85}{5}=17\\x=79-17=62
Conclusion: there is 62 white marbles and 17 blue marbles.

From the two triangle, we can see that triangle ADE is a dilation of triangle ABC by a scale factor of 2.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

From the diagram:

AB = 3 units, AC = 4 units. Using Pythagoras theorem:

BC² = 3² + 4²

BC = 5 units

AE = 6 units, AD = 8 units. Using Pythagoras theorem:

DE² = 6² + 8²

DE = 10 units

From the two triangle, we can see that triangle ADE is a dilation of triangle ABC by a scale factor of 2.

What is the energy of an object has due to it’s motion is called wat
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

The correct answer is Kinetic Energy

Step-by-step explanation:

From conservation of energy a body at rest posses energy called Potential Energy under which it acquired at particular position of the body i.e at rest

Then as soon body starts moving with a certain speed "v" there is conservation of energy from Potential energy to Kinetic energy given as product of a half with mass of the body and square of its velocity.

In formular K.E= 1/2mv^2 where m stands for mass of the body and v is the speed of the body.

Graph a line that is parallel to the given line. Determine the slope ofthe given line and the one you graphed in simplest form.
Daniel [21]

original slope = -4/3

parallel slope = -4/3

Explanation:

For a line to be parallel to anpother line, the slope of both lines must be equal.

We need to find the slope of the given line by picking any two points on the line.

Using points (-6, 5) and (0, -3)

slope formula:

m\text{ = }\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\begin{gathered} x_1=-6,y_1=5,x_2=0,y_2\text{ = -}3 \\ \text{slope = m= }\frac{-3-5}{0-(-6)}=\frac{-8}{0+6} \\ m\text{ = -8/6} \\ m\text{ = -4/3} \end{gathered}

The equation of the given line: y = mx + b

b = y-intercept = -3

y = -4/3x - 3

The equation line parallel to the one above could be:

y = -4/3 x + 7

This because the slope are the same

original slope = -4/3

parallel slope = -4/3

plotting the graph of the lline parallel to the first one:
