We know there are a total of 36 marbles. We also know 24 out of 36 are black and 12 out of 36 are blue. A ratio is pretty much a division problem... The problem wants the 24 black marbles over the 12 blue marbles. So, 24/12 = 2/1. Now, what this means is that for every 2 black marbles, there is one 1 blue marble. Good luck!
2L + 2W = 36
2(3+2W) + 2W = 36
6 + 4W + 2W = 36
6W + 6 = 36
-6 = -6
6W=30
W= 30/6 = 5 L= 3 + 2W = 3 +2 (5) = 3 +10= 13
Width is 5
Length is 13
Elijahlouis, I will not sure how I am going on with my friends. we will need the following
Answer:
x= -1
y=2
Step-by-step explanation:
6x+5y=4
6x-7y=-20
Subtract
To make a fraction into simplest form you have to find the greatest common factor. In this case it is 5. So then you divide both the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common factor of 5.
15÷5=3
100÷5=20
There is no factors that go into both 3 and 20 so simplest form is 3/20.
