Answer:
13
Step-by-step explanation:
Write an equation setting the lengths equal to each other.
5x + 3 = 2x + 9
Move the variable (x) to one side. I'm going to subtract 2x from both sides.
5x - 2x + 3 = 2x - 2x + 9
3x + 3 = 9
Subtract 3 from both sides
3x +3 - 3 = 9 - 3
3x = 6
Divide both sides by 3
3x/3 = 6/3
x = 2
Now use 2x + 9 to find the length of EG by substituting 2 in for x.
2x + 9
2(2) + 9
4 + 9
13
You could also use 5x + 3 to find the length of EG by substituting 2 in for x.
Total number of marbles = 17
3 are black.
Not black = 17 - 3 = 14.
Probability of not black = Number not black / Total
= 14 / 17
