So if the bag contains half as many red marbles as blue ones, and there are 8 reds then there are 16 blues. 16 + 8= 24 if you want there to be 1/4 white marbles add 6. 6/30 is 1/4.
So the answer comes out to be 30 marbles in the bag
You can again ignore the parenthesis because you are not distributing anything.
Your equation will look like this
3x + 11 + 6x
You can move each of these numbers around any way you like. You can combine the 3x and the 6x if you want, but they did not do that. You cannot take the x away and put it in front of the 11 though.
B. is your answer. All they did was move the 6x inside the parenthesis and the 11 out of the parenthesis.
Always remember, when you are adding things together, the parenthesis don't matter!
a) ∠PQR=65° (alternate interior angles theorem)
∠PRQ = 60° (linear pair)
x = 55° (angles in a triangle add to 180°)
b) ∠APQ and ∠PQR are congruent alternate interior angles.
B

because the library has more than or = to 5000 books.
This was done from using the method of synthetic division. I attached the image. Hope this helps
