Answer: 24
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of marbles in jar = 32
Let blue marbles be represented by b.
Since there are three times as many green marbles as blue. This means that green will be = 3 × b = 3b
We then add them together. This will be:
3b + b = 32
4b = 32
b = 32/4
b = 8
There are 8 blue marbles
Since green is 3× blue. Therefore,
Green = 8 × 3 = 24 marbles
Answer: A
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: -69q+74
Step by step:
1. Use distributive property.
8⋅10+8(−6q) + 3(−7q − 2)
Multiply 8 • 10 then -6 • 8
80 - 48q + 3(-7q - 2)
2. Use distributive property again.
80 - 48q + 3(-7q - 2)
Multiply -7 • 3 then 3 • -2
80 - 48q -21q - 6
3. Simplify
Subtract 6 from 80 then subtract 21q from -48q.
-69q + 74
8(10 - 6q) + 3(-7q - 2) = -69q + 74
