option is incorrect the last option should be reverse
The answer is 0.333, or 1/3
In order to confirm if which ordered pair is a solution of the given equation above, we can just simply plug in the values.
So based on my solution, the correct answer would be the third option: <span>(5,1)
So let us try to plug in the values.
2(5) - 1 = 9
10 -1 = 9
9 = 9
So this is the correct one. Hope this answers your question.</span>
Equations:
m = k + 5
k = s + 2
m + k + s = 30
-----------------------
Substitute for "m" and for "s"::
k+5 + k + k-2 = 30
3k +3 = 30
3k = 27
Kirsty has 9 marbles

Mina has 9+5 = 14 marbles
Seb has 9-2 = 7 marbles
