Answer:

There are 6 red marbles in Bag A.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Bag A</u>

Red to white marble ratio is 1:3

White to blue marble ratio is 2:3

If we match the amount of white marbles between both ratios we can put together a three-term ratio.

Red to White 2:6

White to Blue 6:9

Red to White to Blue 2:6:9

Then, the total amount of marbles in bag A is given by:

A= 2·x + 6·x + 9·x

<u>Bag B</u>

B= 1·x + 4·x

White marbles

Since the two bags contain 30 white marbles:

30=A_W+B_W= 6·x + 4·x=10x ⇒ x=3

Then,

A_R:red marbles in bag A

A_R=2·x=2·3=6

There are 6 red marbles in Bag A.

(-6,1) is a point on the graph of y=g(x)
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

(-7, -4)

(-4, 2)

(-4, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the point (-6, 1) belongs to the main function g(x)

The transformation

y = g (x + 1) -5

add 1 to the input variable (x) and subtract 5 to the output variable (y)

So the point in the graph of y = g (x + 1) -5 is

x + 1 =-6\\x = -7

y= 1-5\\y = -4

The point is:  (-7, -4)

The transformation

y = -2g(x -2) +4

subtract two units from the input variable (x), multiply the output variable (y) by -2 and then add 4 units

So the point in the graph of y = -2g(x -2) +4 is

x -2 =-6\\x = -4\\\\y = -2(1)+4\\y = 2

The point is:  (-4, 2)

The transformation

y=g(2x+2)

Multiply the input variable (x) by 2 and then add two units

So the point in the graph of   y=g(2x+2) is

2x +2 =-6\\2x = -8\\x=-4

y=1

The point is:  (-4, 1)

Answer: Non-Linear Function line

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason is if it was a linear one then it would be a straight line and since this is not a straight line then it is a Non-Linear Function because you can't just look at it and see what the increase and decrease was for a certain time period.

mr_godi [17]

Answer:

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

In decimal, the values of the fractions are ...

  -0.2 = -0.200

  -3/7 = -0.429

  -2/8 = -0.250

So, in a, b, c order, they are ...

  a = -3/7

  b = -2/8

  c = -0.2
