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

S, U, N are collinear. What point is between the other two if NU = 1, SU = 2, SN = 3? NU + US = NS.
tigry1 [53]
U is between N and S.
The order of the letters does not matter, thus:
NU = 1 and US = 2 so NS = 3.
This is only possible if NU + US = NS
Proving U is between N and S.

Bob sees a very tall white pine tree. He estimates that the angle of elevation from him to the top of the tree is 77°
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

  86.63 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent relation applies.

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

  tan(77°) = (tree height)/(20 ft)

  tree height = (20 ft)·tan(77°) ≈ 86.63 ft

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

It is somewhat problematic for Bob to see the top of a white pine tree at that angle of elevation. His view would likely be obscured by the branches of the tree.
