Answers are in bold:

-1=3x-2

add 2 to both sides

-1+2=3x-2+2

1=3x

divide both sides by 3

1÷3=3x÷3

1/3=x

-3x=9

divide both sides by -3

-3x÷-3=9÷-3

x=-3

-10=-5x

divide both sides by -5

-10÷-5=-5x÷-5

2=x

I hope this is good enough:

Let the numbers be n, n+2, n+4

Sum equals too= 13+2(n+4), which is 2n+21

a) Equation--> n+n+2+n+4= 2n+21

b) Solution--> 3n+6= 2n+21

=> n= 15

c) Second number--> 17 (15+2)

Third number--> 19 (15+4)

d) 15+15+2+15+4=30+21

=> 51= 51

So, the equation is true.

And pls mark me brainliesttt :)))

What is the x-coordinate of the vertex of the parabola whose equation is y = 3x² + 9x?

saveliy_v [14]

Answer: -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The axis of symmetry, and thus the x-coordinate of the vertex, is given by $x=-\frac{b}{2a}$

So, the answer is $x=-\frac{9}{2(3)}=\boxed{-\frac{3}{2}}$

Can you please help me out

Taya2010 [7]

The bag contains,

Red (R) marbles is 9, Green (G) marbles is 7 and Blue (B) marbles is 4,

Total marbles (possible outcome) is,

$\text{Total marbles = (R) + (G) +(B) = 9 + 7 + 4 = 20 marbles}$

Let P(R) represent the probablity of picking a red marble,

P(G) represent the probability of picking a green marble and,

P(B) represent the probability of picking a blue marble.

Probability , P, is,

$\text{Prob, P =}\frac{required\text{ outcome}}{possible\text{ outcome}}$ $\begin{gathered} P(R)=\frac{9}{20} \\ P(G)=\frac{7}{20} \\ P(B)=\frac{4}{20} \end{gathered}$

Probablity of drawing a Red marble (R) and then a blue marble (B) without being replaced,

That means once a marble is drawn, the total marbles (possible outcome) reduces as well,

$\begin{gathered} \text{Prob of a red marble P(R) =}\frac{9}{20} \\ \text{Prob of }a\text{ blue marble =}\frac{4}{19} \\ \text{After a marble is selected without replacement, marbles left is 19} \\ \text{Prob of red marble + prob of blue marble = P(R) + P(B) = }\frac{9}{20}+\frac{4}{19}=\frac{251}{380} \\ \text{Hence, the probability is }\frac{251}{380} \end{gathered}$

Hence, the best option is G.
