Answer:

The equation to solve to find the number of yellow marbles =

3y + y = 500

4y = 500

The number of yellow marbles = 125

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of

Blue marbles = x

Yellow marbles = y

A large jar contains 500 marbles.

x + y = 500

All of the marbles in the jar are either blue or yellow, and there are 3 times as many blue marbles as yellow marbles.

3y = x

Hence, we substitute 3y for ymx in the above equation

3y + y = 500

4y = 500

y = 500/4

y = 125

The number of yellow marbles = 125

You're going to want to take the total, which is $353.00 and subtract the initial cost, which is $84.00, the number now should be $269. Using that total divide it by $68.00, there you should find your answer of about 4 hours. The precise answer is 3.99588235. But you would round that to 4 hours.

-3 + (-8)<br> how can i do this
murzikaleks [220]

Answer: -11

Step-by-step explanation:

+(-8) can be simplified to -8 because when you multiply a positive sign by a negative sign, the outcome is a negative sign. So your problem is -3-8= and the answer is -11 because when two numbers with the same sign are subtracted/added by each other, the numbers just get added and the sign stays the same. If you're still confused, use a number line. Hope this helps!
