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

Use the formula for simple interest to find the interest rate if a deposit of $1400 earned $490 of interest after 5 years,
mario62 [17]
Given the simple interest formula:

I = P•R•T

where:
I = interest
P = principal
R = interest rate
T = time (in years)

We can isolate R algebraically to find out the interest rate:

I = P•R•T

Divide both sides by P•T:

I / (P•T) = (P•R•T)/(P•T)

The formula for the interest rate is:
R = I / (P•T)

Substitute the given values into this formula to solve for the interest rate (R):

R = I / (P•T)

R = $490/ ($1,400 • 5 years)
R = $490 / $7,000
R = 0.07 or 7%

Therefore, the interest rate is 7%.

Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line and through the given point y=-2x+1 point (0,5)
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

y = -2x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -2x+1 is in the form y= mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

-2 is the slope

Parallel lines have the same slope so our new line will have the same slope

y = -2x+b

The point given is the y intercept (value when x is zero)

b = 5

y = -2x+5

EFGH is a parallelogram. Find the measure of FG and EG <br>​
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

FG = 44

EG = 80

Step-by-step explanation:

For FG:

1) 5z - 16 = 3z + 8

2) 5z = 3z + 24

3) 2z = 24

4) z = 12

5) 3(12) + 8 = 44

For EG:

1) 2w + 22 = 4w + 4

2) 2w = 4w - 18

3) -2w = -18

4) w = 9

5) 4(9) + 4 + 2w + 22 = 80
