Answer: Mark has 28 marbles while Don has 85 marbles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of marbles that Mark has.

Let y represent the number of marbles that Don has.

If Don has 1 more than 3 times the number of marbles Mark has, it means that

y = 3x + 1

The total number of marbles is 113. It means that

x + y = 113- - - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting y = 3x + 1 into equation 1, it becomes

x + 3x + 1 = 113

4x + 1 = 113

4x = 113 - 1 = 112

x = 112/4

x = 28

y = 3x + 1 = 3 × 28 + 1

y = 85

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a). Since, ΔABC ~ ΔWYZ

Their corresponding sides will be proportional.

\frac{AB}{WY}=\frac{BC}{YZ}= \frac{AC}{WZ}

\frac{194}{WY}=\frac{BC}{1}= \frac{130}{WZ}  --------(1)

By applying Pythagoras theorem in ΔABC,

AB² = AC² + BC²

BC² = AB² - AC²

BC² = (194)² - (130)²

BC² = 20736

BC = 144

From equation (1)

\frac{194}{WY}=\frac{144}{1}= \frac{130}{WZ}

\frac{194}{WY}=\frac{144}{1}

WY = \frac{194}{144}

WY = \frac{97}{72} = 1.35

\frac{144}{1}= \frac{130}{WZ}

WZ = \frac{130}{144}

WZ = \frac{65}{72} = 0.90

b). tan(A) = \frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}

               = \frac{144}{130}

               = \frac{72}{65}

Since, ΔABC ~ ΔWYZ,

∠A ≅ ∠W

Therefore, tangent of angle A and angle W will measure \frac{72}{65}.
