CARD #1: Use the number 0 to represent the yellow marbles and 1 through 9 to represent the other marbles.
Since we are only allotting one out of the 10 numbers for the yellow marbles, then we should also find a set of marbles wherein the ratio of the yellow marbles to the total marbles is 1/10. Out of the options, the situation with 30 red marbles, 40 blue marbles, 20 green marbles, and 10 yellow marbles match the ratio.
CARD #2: Use the numbers 0 through 4 to represent the yellow marbles and 5 through 9 to represent the other marbles.
We will follow the same logic as the previous pair. Since we used 5 numbers out of the 10 for yellow marbles, then we should find a situation wherein the ratio of the yellow marbles to the total marbles is 1/2. From the options, the situation with 16 red marbles, 32 blue marbles, 32 green marbles, and 80 yellow marbles satisfy the ratio.
CARD #3: Use the numbers 0 through 2 to represent the yellow marbles and 3 through 9 to represent the other marbles.
For this card, 3 out of the 10 numbers are allotted for the yellow marbles. Thus, the ratio of the yellow marbles to the total marbles should be 3/10. We can see that the only situation that satisfies this is the one with 60 red marbles, 120 blue marbles, 30 green marbles, and 90 yellow marbles.
CARD #4: Use the numbers 0 through 3 to represent the yellow marbles and 4 through 9 to represent the other marbles.
Lastly, we will apply the same logic for this card. The 4 numbers allotted for yellow marbles will tell us that the ratio of the yellow marbles to the total marbles should be 2/5. The only situation that satisfies this would be the one with 20 red marbles, 30 blue marbles, 10 green marbles, and 40 yellow marbles.
Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the original denominator be 2x.
The original numerator is x.
The original fraction is x/(2x).
The numerator is increased by 2, and the denominator is decreased by 2.
The new fraction is (x + 2)/(2x - 2).
The new fraction equals 3/4.
(x + 2)/(2x - 2) = 3/4
Cross multiply.
4(x + 2) = 3(2x - 2)
4x + 8 = 6x - 6
-2x = -14
x = 7
The original numerator was 7.
2x = 2(7) = 14
The original denominator was 14.
Answer: 3
Step-by-step explanation:
16+3=19
Answer:
y + 2 =
(x - 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in point- slope form is
y - b = m(x - a)
where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line
y - 4 =
(x - 3) ← is in point- slope form
with slope m = 
Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus equation of parallel line
with m =
and (a, b) = Q(1, - 2) is
y - (- 2) =
(x - 1) , that is
y + 2 =
(x - 1)
The answer is x = -4 or x = 9
