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

3 consecutive odd integers such that the sum of twice the first and three times the second is 55 more than twice the third
den301095 [7]

Answer:

Consecutive odd integers are 19 , 21 & 23

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first 3 consecutive odd intergers be x , (x + 2) and (x + 4).

According to the question,

2x + 3(x + 2) = 2(x + 4) + 55

=  > 2x + 3x + 6 = 2x + 8 + 55

Eliminating 2x from both the sides,

=  > 3x + 6 = 63

=  > 3x = 63 - 6 = 57

=  > x =  \frac{57}{3}  = 19

So, the consecutive odd integers are = 19 , 21 & 23.

Answer:

\large\boxed{x\approx56.44}

\large\text{It's close to 55.0}

Step-by-step explanation:

\tan12^o\approx0.2126\\\\\tan12^o=\dfrac{12}{x}\to\dfrac{12}{x}=0.2126\qquad\text{convert the decimal to the fraction}\\\\\dfrac{12}{x}=\dfrac{2126}{10000}\qquad\text{cross multiply}\\\\2126x=120000\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2126}\\\\x=\dfrac{120000}{2126}\\\\x\approx56.44
