Let x be white marbles, y be yellow marbles
x+y=54…(1)
x=3y - 6 …(2)
put (2) into (1)
(3y - 6) + y = 54
4y = 60
y=15
put y=15 into (1)
x + 15=54
x=39
so y=15 x=39
Answer:
D. false; if a = 1, b = 2, and c = 3, then 1(2 + 3) ≠ 1(2) + 2(3)
Step-by-step explanation:
A is false, because the a is being distributed/ being multiplied to all terms inside the parenthesis, and not the term b.
B is also false. There is no indicated negative signs.
C is also false because 1(1 + 1) is EQUAL to 1(1) + 1(1)
D is true.
Y = x - 1
because the gradient is 1 and the y-intercept is -1
