=24/20 thus the answer is 1.2
First let’s express the total number of marbles as such:
y(yellow marbles) + r(red marbles)=23; y+r=23
now let’s express the relation of yellow marbles to red marbles:
y=2r(2 times red marbles) - 4(4 less marbles); y=2r-4
since we figured out what y equals, we can plug into the first equation we created:
(2r-4)+r=23
now solve for r:
2r-4+r=23
combine like terms
3r-4=23
add 4 to both sides
3r=27
divide both side by 3
r=9
plug r back into first equation and solve for y:
y+9=23
subtract 9
y=14
there are 9 red marbles and 14 yellow marbles!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
40-j=8
Which expression has the same value as the one below?
i dont kown cause i cant see the choices
Y = 3x + 4
y = -x - 4
3x + 4 = -x - 4
3x + x = -4 - 4
4x = -8
x = -8/4
x = -2
y = 3x + 4
y = 3(-2) + 4
y = -6 + 4
y = -2
solution is (-2,-2) <==
