Answer:

6:9

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets assume the relationship between the amount of blue and red marbles are proportional. If there are 6 red marbles , then we would need need to find out how much times you multiplied 2 by to get.

6/2 is 3, which means that you multiplied the red marbles by 3 to get 6 of them.

Since the relationship between red and blue marbles is equivalent, we just need to multiply the blue marbles by 3 as well, to even it out.

3x3=9

There are 9 blue marbles if there are 6 red marbles.

How much of the circle is shaded? 4/7+1/3 HELP​
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

19/21

Step-by-step explanation:

When we add two fractions, such as 4/7 + 1/3, we make sure that the two denominators are the same and then we simply add the numerators. In cases where the denominators are not the same, we find the lowest common denominator and adjust the fractions to keep them intact. We also simplify the answers to fraction problems whenever possible.

The area of the triangle is 42 square inches. find the value of x when a = x and b = (x+8)
damaskus [11]

Answer:

6 and -14

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the triangle = 1/2 ab

42 = 1/2 (x)(x+8)

42 *2 = x(x+8)

84 = x²+8x

x²+8x-84 = 0

x²+14x-6x-84 = 0

x(x+14)-6(x+14) = 0

x-6 = 0 and x+14 = 0

x = 6 and -14

Hence the values of x are 6 and -14
