Answer:

52:49

Step-by-step explanation:

pink:green

The ratio of pink to green marbles is

3k:4k

He removes 5 green marbles and adds 8 pink marbles.

Now the ratio of pink to green marbles is

(3k + 8):(4k - 5)

This rario is equal to 29:23.

(3k + 8)/(4k - 5) = 29/23

29(4k - 5) = 23(3k + 8)

116k - 145 = 69k + 184

47k = 329

k = 7

Original amounts:

3 * k = 3 * 7 = 21 pink

4 * k = 4 * 7 = 28 green

Original total = 21 + 28 = 49

Amounts after replacement:

3k + 8 = 3(7) + 8 = 29 pink

4k - 5 = 4(7) - 5 = 23 green

Total after replacement = 23 + 29 = 52

Answer: The ratio of the total number of marbles in the jar after replacement to the total number of marbles in the jar originally is 52:49.

A large washer has an outer radius of 10mm and a hole with a diameter of 14mm. What is the area of the top surface of the washer
choli [55]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The area of the top surface of the washer is:  160.14 square mm.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

The top of the surface is in the shape of a annulus  with a outer radius of 10 mm and a inner radius of 7 mm ( since the diameter of the hole is: 14 mm and we know that the radius is half of the diameter)

Now, we know that the area of the annulus region is given by:

Area=\pi (R^2-r^2)

where R is the outer radius and r is the inner radius.

Here we have:

R=10\ mm\\\\and\\\\r=7\ mm

Hence, we have:

Area\ of\ top\ surface=\pi (10^2-7^2)\\\\i.e.\\\\Area\ of\ top\ surface=\pi (100-49)\\\\i.e.\\\\Area\ of\ top\ surface=\pi\cdot 51\\\\i.e.\\\\Area\ of\ top\ surface=160.14\ mm^2
