Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

w + g = 52

w = 4g - 3

(4g - 3) + g = 52

5g - 3 = 52

5g = 52 + 3

5g = 55

g = 55/5

g = 11....there are 11 green marbles

w + g = 52

w + 11 = 52

w = 52 - 11

w = 41 <=== there are 41 white marbles

Answer:

white marbles = 41

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up the equation

52 = (4g-3) +g

g = green marbles

white marbles are represented by 4g-3

these are added together to equal 52

solve for g, combine like terms

52 = 5g -3

g = 11

4g -3 = white marbles

(4x11) - 3 = white marbles = 41

AB= 4x + 7 and BC = 20x - 5 <br> AB ~= BC
Mariana [72]

The value of the variable x is 3/4

<h3>What are congruent segments</h3>

Congruent segment are segments with equal or congruent lengths.

From the information given, we have that line AB is approximately equal to line BC. This is represented as;

AB = BC

Where;

  • AB = 4x + 7
  • BC = 20x - 7

Now, let's equate the expressions

4x + 7 = 20x - 5

collect like terms

4x - 20x = - 5 - 7

- 16x = - 12

Make 'x' the subject of formula

x = -12/-16

x = 3/4

Thus, the value of the variable x is 3/4
