Answer:

You will have 128 orange marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

Set this up as an equation

Variable x = number of orange marbles

3/8 = 48/x

Cross multiply

3 × x = 8 × 48

3x = 384

Divide both sides by 3 to isolate the variable

3x ÷ 3 = 384 ÷ 3

1x = 128

x = 128

128 orange marbles

Check work:

Substitute the variable x for the answer

3/8 = 48/128

Cross multiply

3 × 128 = 8 × 48

384 = 384

If the numbers equal, the answer is correct

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

<h3>              ∠ABC≅∠DEF </h3><h3>              ∠BCA≅∠EFD </h3><h3>              ∠CAB≅∠FDE </h3><h3>           AB≅DE,  BC≅EF,  CA≅FD</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

To rotate point A 180° about the origin (point O) we draw a line from that point (A) throu the origin, measure the distance from the point A to the origin, and then measure the same distance on the other side of the origin to get rotated point. Mark it. The angle at the rotated point will be congruent to ∠A

The same goes for points B and C

Angles at pair of given and rotated point are congruent.

Sides of triangle are congruent if they lay between two congruent angles.
