Answer:
ok whatchu need help with
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to determine the number of pens present in the container, we need to set up equations from the given in the problem statement. We do as follows:
let x the number of pencils
y the number of pens
From the statement, 9 more pencils then pens in a container,
x = y + 9
From the statement, there are 25 writing utensils in the container in all,
x + y = 25
We use substitution method to calculate for x and y,
y + 9 + y = 25
2y = 16
y = 8
x = 17
Therefore, there are 8 pens in the container and 17 pencils.

Answer:
- 2x + y = - 1 , so the B is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
+ Because of "the line passing through the pair of points (2,3) and (5,9)", that means the line has the equation y = ax + b where a = (9-3)/(5-2)= 6/3= 2
+ So the equation is y = 2x + b.
+ Then we replace x= 2 and y= 3 into y = 2x + b for finding like:
3 = 2*2 + b or 3 = 4 + b, so we find b = 3 - 4 = - 1.
+ The equation of this line is y = 2x - 1 or in the form:
2x - y - 1 = 0 (or -2x + y = -1)
Have a good day!
Answer:
50 yellow marbles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Information:
170 marbles
RED : BLUE : YELLOW
9 : 3 : 5
Solving:
To find out how many yellow parts there are, we need to find out how many marbles 5 parts account to.
Altogether, 9 + 3 + 5 = 17. This means there are 17 parts.
The bag contains 170 marbles and the ratio adds up to 17 parts.
We can figure out what 1 part of the ratio accounts to by dividing 170 by 17.
= 10.
1 part = 10
Now remember yellow is 5 parts, now that we know that 1 part is 10, we need to multiply 10 by 5 to find out how many yellow marbles we have.
5 x 10 = 50.
Therefore we have 50 yellow marbles.
