Answer:

660

Step-by-step explanation:

Let  A = number of buttons in Box A

and B = number of buttons in Box B

We have two conditions:

(1)            A + B = 1200

(2)       B + 360 = 3(A – 360)     Remove parentheses

          B + 360 = 3A - 1080      Subtract 360 from each side

(3)                 B = 3A - 1440       Substitute (3) into (1)

A + 3A - 1440 = 1200               Combine like terms

      4A - 1440 = 1200               Add 1440 to each side

                4A  = 2640               Divide each side by 4

                   A = 660

There are 3 blue marbles, 6 red marbles, 2 green marbles and 1 black marble in a bag. Suppose you select one marble at random. F
laila [671]

Answer:

For blue its 3/12 = 1/4 = 25%

For red it's 6/12= 1/2= 50%

For green 2/12= 1/6= 17%

For black 1/12= 8%

Step-by-step explanation:

All you have to do is add up all the marbles 3 + 6 + 2 + 1 = 12 and then you put the number of marbles for each color and divide it by 12 which gives you those percentages. I don't know if you wanted the answers in percentages or fractions so I gave you both . Good luck!!
