A bag contains 50 blue marbles and 66 red marbles. If 88 more red marbles are added to the bag, how many more blue marbles must
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

After adding 88 red marbles, there are 50 blue marbles out of the 204 marbles total.

Let the number of blue marbles to be added be x.

\frac{50+x}{204+x}=\frac{5}{12} \\ \\ 600+12x=1020+5x \\ \\ 420=7x \\ \\ x=60

In the figure, VW || YZ. Find the value of x, and the measure of YA and WA.
svetoff [14.1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

because VW || YZ, the 2 triangles are similar.

this is given by the rules of equal angles of intersecting lines with parallel lines. Z to V and Y to W would be such intersecting lines.

and therefore, the angle at W is the angle at Y, the angle at V is the angle at Z. and therefore both angles at A are equal.

so, for similar triangles the scaling factor between corresponding pairs of sides is the same for all sides.

e.g. the same scaling factor that converts 7.2 to 12, converts then also x to x+4.

7.2 × f = 12

f = 12/7.2 = 12/ 72/10 = 120/72 = 10/6 = 5/3

x × 5/3 = x + 4

5x = 3x + 12

2x = 12

x = 6

A to Y = x = 6

W to A = x + 4 = 6 + 4 = 10

Molly wants her rectangular rooftop garden plot to have an area of 21 square feet. If she makes the width 5 feet, what must be t
Over [174]
Area = length x width
21 = length x 5
length = 21/5 = 4.2

The length is inversely proportional to the width because as the length increases the width reduces and vice-versa
