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

Check the picture below.

\textit{vertex of a vertical parabola, using coefficients} \\\\ y=\stackrel{\stackrel{a}{\downarrow }}{-16}x^2\stackrel{\stackrel{b}{\downarrow }}{+160}x\stackrel{\stackrel{c}{\downarrow }}{+20} \qquad \qquad \left(-\cfrac{ b}{2 a}~~~~ ,~~~~ c-\cfrac{ b^2}{4 a}\right)

\left(-\cfrac{ 160}{2(-16)}~~~~ ,~~~~ 20-\cfrac{ (160)^2}{4(-16)}\right) \implies \left( - \cfrac{ 160 }{ -32 }~~,~~20 - \cfrac{ 25600 }{ -64 } \right) \\\\\\ \left( 5 ~~~~ ,~~~~ 20 +400 \right)\implies (\stackrel{seconds}{5}~~,~~\stackrel{feet}{420})
