Answer: 685 red marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets set up a proportion:

x/1096 = 5/8

(For every 8 marbles, 5 of them are red)

Then we cross multiply

5480 = 8x

and divide!

so 685 marbles

5x + 10 &gt; 35<br> How do you work this out?
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

x > 5

Step-by -step explanation:

Solving inequalities is similar to solving equations.

5x + 10 > 35

Subtract 10 from both sides.

5x > 25

Divide by 5 from both sides to isolate the x.

x > 5

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello There!

The mean is pretty much the average

So to find the mean we first add up all of the values

2+3+6+6+7+8+8=40

Then we count the amount of points

There are 8 points

our final step is to divide the total value by the total number of points

40/8=5

so the mean (average) would be 5
