Let red marbles = X.
The probability is 1 out of 5, written as 1/5
1/5 in terms of red marbles is equal to the number of red marbles divided by 5x, where 5x is the total number of marbles.
1/5 = x/5x
Now you have 5x total marbles, x red and 4x blue.
Add 5 more red and the new probability is:
(x+5)/(5x+5) = 1/3
Simplify:
3x+15 = 5x+5
Now solve for x:
Subtract 3x from both sides:
15 = 2x +5
Subtract 5 from each side:
2x = 10
Divide both sides by 2:
x = 10/2
X = 5
There were originally 5 red marbles.

Answer:
-312
Step-by-step explanation:
The general term of an arithmetic sequence is ...
an = a1 +d(n -1)
Here, you have first term a1 = 31, and common difference d = 24-31 = -7. So, the 50th term is ...
a50 = 31 -7(50 -1) = 31 -7(49) = -312
The 50th term for the sequence is -312.
$900
Explanation
First, you would need to find the area of the carpet which would be length x width, equaling to 400 ft., then you’d multiply the area of the carpet (400ft) by the cost for each square foot (2.25) leaving you with the total, $900
The denominator of the function would be equal to zero so it would be undefined.
