Answer: red marbles = 140

White marbles = 98

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of white marbles be represented by x

Since there are 42 more red marbles in a jar than there are white marbles, red marbles will be: = x + 42

Since there are 238 marbles in the jar, this can be represented in an equation as:

x + x+42 = 238

2x + 42 = 238

2x = 238 - 42

2x = 196

x = 196/2

x = 98

White marbles = 98

Red marbles = x + 42

= 98 + 42

= 140

#1

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 2y=x-4

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow y=x/2-2

  • m=1/2

Parallel lines have equal slope

Equation in point slope form

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow y-4=1/2(x-1)

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 2y-8=x-1

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow x-2y+7=0

#2

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 1/2y-3x=2

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 1/2y=3x+2

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow y=6x+4

  • m=6

Parallel lines have equal slope

Equation of line

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow y-6=6(x+2)

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow y-6=6x+12

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 6x-y+18=0

#3

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 1/k x+5=3y\implies y=x/3k+5/3

  • m1=1/3k

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow y=(2/k+3)x-6/(k+3)

  • m2=2/k+3

Slopes remain same

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow \dfrac{1}{3k}=\dfrac{2}{k+3}

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow k+3=6k

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 5k=3

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow k=3/5
