I know someone else answered already, but I will answer in more detail.

we can write a simple equation to find out the answer mathematically.

8 (number of marbles left) = m (marbles before) - 5

(8=m-5)

add 5 to each side and you will get
m = 13

so, maya started with 13 marbles

One smartphone plan costs $52 per month for talk and messaging and $8 per gigabyte of data used each month. A second smartphone
valina [46]

Answer:

Both plans would cost $100 if 6 gigabytes of data are used.

Explanation:

From the question, the system of equation are correctly represented by using small letter c to represent the total cost in dollars for both equations as already assumed in the question as follows:

c = 52 + 8d ........................... (1)

c = 82 + 3d ........................... (2)

Since c is common to both, equations (1) and (2) can therefore be equated and d solved for as follows:

52 + 8d = 82 + 3d

8d - 3d = 82 - 52

5d = 30

d = 30 / 5

d = 6

Substituting d = 6 into equation (1), we have:

c = 52 + (8 * 6)

c = 52 + 48

c = 100

Since d = 6 and c = 100, it therefore implies that both plans would cost $100 if 6 gigabytes of data are used.

So we know that the denominator-numerator=18

And we also know that it's equal to 4/10 or 2/5.

Soooooooooooooo the most easiest is just to trial and error: 12/30

But I don't really know the more complex formula...
