The smaller share is 2/(2+3)*185 g = 74 g.
The larger share is 185 -74 g = 111 g.
Answer:
You will have 128 orange marbles
Step-by-step explanation:
Set this up as an equation
Variable x = number of orange marbles
3/8 = 48/x
Cross multiply
3 × x = 8 × 48
3x = 384
Divide both sides by 3 to isolate the variable
3x ÷ 3 = 384 ÷ 3
1x = 128
x = 128
128 orange marbles
Check work:
Substitute the variable x for the answer
3/8 = 48/128
Cross multiply
3 × 128 = 8 × 48
384 = 384
If the numbers equal, the answer is correct
Answer:
2,100 cubic feet
Step-by-step explanation:
20 × 15 × 8 = 2,400
20 × 15 × 1 = 300
2,400 - 300 = 2,100
Substitute y=4x to the second equation:
x^2 + (4x)^2 = 17
x^2 + 16x^2 = 17
17x^2 = 17
x^2 = 17/17
x^2 = 1
x = 1 and -1
When x=1, y=4(1) = 4
When x=-1, y=4(-1) = -4
Thus the solutions would be (1,4) and (-1,-4). That would correspond to D. and A.
