Answer: Original salary = $500
Step-by-step explanation: Tricia got a 6% raise on her weekly salary. The
raise was $30 per week.
Let x be the original salary
x times the raise percentage = raise amount
6%= 6/100=0.06, raise amount = 30
Now we solve for x
Divide by 0.06 on both sides
Original salary = $500
We know that y is equal to x-2. We can just substitute x-2 for y since y is equal to it.
10x- 9(x-2)=24
Distribute.
10x- 9x+18= 24
x+18= 24
Subtract 18 on both sides.
x= 6
Now, plug in x.
y= (6)-2
y= 4
We can check this to see if this works:
4= 6-2, 4=4
10(6)- 9(4)= 24
60-36= 24, 24=24
x=6 and y=4
I hope this helps!

A) No, because your bag has 8 marbles, and each time you take it out, you put it back in. So there is a chance that you can pick the same marble again, and not pick up a red marble that's already in the bag.
b) No, because you could still keep on picking up the same marble over and over again.
c) There is no absolutely certain number of times.
