Answer:

Red balls =  84     Blue balls =  140

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so there are 225 marbles

And ratio here is Red : Blue = 3 : 5

So Red marbles = 3x whereas Blue marbles = 5x

Therefore,

3x + 5x = 225

8x = 225

x = 28.125 = 28

<u>Red balls = 28*3 = 84     Blue balls = 28*5 = 140</u>

(Pls check whether total no of balls is 224)

DerKrebs [107]

33 degrees C

Step-by-step explanation:

On the integer scale, the numeric values can be added thus

23 to -10

23 to 0 and 0 to -10

23-0 = 23

0 -(-10) = 10

23 + 10 = 33

Thus, 33 degree C is the difference between the two temperatures.

taurus [48]

We are given that the insect can lift 1.182 x 10^3 times it's own weight. Say that w is weight, so the lift is:

lift = 1.182 x 10^3 * w

 

Assuming that your body weight is 60 kg, therefore you can lift:

lift = 1.182 x 10^3 * 60 kg = 70,920 kg
