C is the answer 12 marbles and 20 marbles
Let Mary's age be x.
Paul is three times as old as Mary, so Paul's age would be 3x.
Peter is four times as old as Mary, so Peter's age would be 4x.
The sum of their ages is 64
⇒ Paul's age+ Peter's age+ Mary's age= 64
⇒ 3x+ 4x+ x= 64
⇒ 8x= 64
⇒ x= 64/8
⇒ x= 8
Paul's age is: 3x= 3*8= 24
Peter's age is: 4x= 4*8= 32
Final answer: Paul is 24 years old.
Peter is 32 years old.
Mary is 8 years old.
Hope this helps~
X would be 0 while Y would be 4
3x+y=4
-(2x+y=4)
----------------
x=0
Plug in x to any of those two equations in their original form
3(0)+y=4
0 + y = 4
y = 4
Answer:
10.67
Step-by-step explanation:
The 10 stays as it is. The 2/3 is approximated by 0.67 (to the nearest hundredth). Thus, we have 10.67 to the nearest hundredth.
Answer:
Option C is correct.
She is not correct as she use the wrong y intercepts when graphing the equations.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the system of equations:
.....[1]
. .....[2]
equate these two equations we get;

Add 5 to both sides we get;

Add 2x to both sides we have;

Multiply both sides by 3 we get;
8x = 24
Divide both sides by 8 we get;
x = 3
Substitute the value of x in [2] we have;
y = -2(3)+3 = -6+3
Simplify:
y = -3
Therefore, the correct solution for this given system of equation is (3, -3)
You can see the graph of these equations below.
