There is a bag filled with 5 blue and 4 red marbles.
Delvig [45]

Answer:

8/18=4/9

Step-by-step explanation:

since it there is 1/6 for red marbles and 5/18 for blue marbles it works because it is 8*9=72 for the denominator and 4*3=12 so it is 12/72=1/6 and for blue it is 5/18 because it is 5*4=20 and 20/72=10/36=5/18 so it is 1/6+5/18=8/18=4/9

HELP DUE IN 10 MINS! Solve for x in the parallelogram below:<br><br> x=??
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite angles in a parallelogram are congruent, then

5x - 9 = 3x + 11 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

2x - 9 = 11 ( add 9 to both sides )

2x = 20 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 10

Can someone help me with this exercise?
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

View image

Step-by-step explanation:

You treat inequality questions just like normal equation with an equal sign. You only have to worry about the inequality when you do the shading part.

Your first goal is to solve for y, which I did at the top.

And remember that when you divide/multiply by a negative number you have to flip the inequality sign.

So the first equation is already in term of y. (y < 2x + 4)

So you only have to solve for y for -3x - 2y ≥ 6.

I solved that and got y ≤ -3/2x - 3.

Now you have 2 equations. y < 2x + 4 and y ≤ -3/2x - 3

First you gotta treat it like a normal equation and graph them.

So i graphed y = 2x + 4 and y = -3/2x - 3. I assume you already know how do do that.

btw. < and > have dotted lines, while ≤ and ≥ have solid lines.

Now for the shading, you gotta look at the inequality sign.

y < 2x + 4 has a less than sign, so you have to shade everything underneath the line you graphed.

y ≤ -3/2x - 3 is also less than, so you have to shade everything underneath that line as well.

So in the future, you you get a > or ≥ then you have to shade above the graph.

What is the percent decrease from 60 to 39?
IrinaK [193]
X - the percent decrease

60-60x=39 \ \ \ |-60 \\&#10;-60x=-21 \ \ \ |\div (-60) \\&#10;x=\frac{-21}{-60} \\ \Downarrow \\ x=\frac{-21}{-60}=\frac{-21 \div (-3)}{-60 \div (-3)}=\frac{7}{20}=\frac{7 \times 5}{20 \times 5}=\frac{35}{100}=35\%

It's a 35% decrease.
