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:
(x, y ) → (- y, - x )
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the coordinates of corresponding vertices of the 2 triangles, that is
A(1, 7 ) → D(- 7, - 1 )
Note the coordinates of D are the negative reversals of A
Thus (x, y ) → (- y, - x )
Since the values are the same on both sides the matrix value is a=1
(7,5)(-4,-1)
slope = (-1-5) / (-4-7) = -6/-11 = 6/11
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = 6/11
(-4,-1)...x1 = -4 and y1 = -1
now we sub...pay close attention to ur signs
y - (-1) = 6/11(x - (-4) ...not done yet...
y + 1 = 6/11(x + 4) <===
