Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If there are 9 marbles in total and the desired outcome is to pick a green marble then the probability is 
= 
which simplifies down to a third.
In a parallelogram, consecutive angles are supplementary.
3y + 78 = 180
3y = 102
y = 34

Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
3 cups of flour produces 2 batches of dinner rolls. So, if one batch makes 15 rolls, then 2 batches makes 30 rolls. Therefore, 3 cups of flour produces 30 rolls.
Laura wants to find how much flour she needs to make 12 rolls.
Here's the setup:
Let x be the number of cups of flour needed. Then,
(3 cups of flour)/(30 rolls)=(x cups of flour)/(12 rolls)
This is the set up for all equations involving ratios. The units should be consistent. Notice how I have flour/rolls=flour/rolls.
It is not necessary to solve the equation, but you should to make sure your answer makes sense. By cross-multiplying, we get x=(3*12)/30 or 1.2 cups.
This solution makes sense. Because 3 cups of flour produces 30 rolls, one cup produces 10 rolls. We need slightly more than 1 cup to get 12 rolls.
Answer:
t = 4 h
Step-by-step explanation:
Painter A initial fee 40 $ and each hour charge 45 $
Painter B initial fee 100 $ and each hour charge 30 $
The equations for painters are straight lines.
The initial fee is the intercept of the line with the y-axis ( painters receive 40 and 100 $ respectively and they have done nothing.
The equation for a straight line is:
y = m*x + b where m is the slope and b the intercept with the y-axis
Then
Painter A when x = 0 y = b = 40
And each hour of work cost 45 $ then f x = t in hours
The equation for Painter A is y = 45*t + 40
Similarly, the equation for Painter B is
y = 30*t + 100
We have a two equations system, the solution will indicate when the two painters will charge the same amount of money
y = 45*t + 40 (1)
y = 30*t + 100 (2)
Equation 1 - equation 2
0 = 15*t - 60
15*t = 60
t = 60/15
t = 4 h
