Answer:

18 marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Express the fraction of each type of marble as a function of the total number of marbles as shown;

Let;

total marbles=x

red marbles=3/(3+4)=3/7x

blue marbles=4/7 x

But x=42 marbles

The total number of marbles for each type can be expressed as;

total number of red marbles=fraction of red marbles×total number of marbles

where;

fraction of red marbles=3/7 x

total number of marbles=42

replacing;

total number of red marbles=(3/7)×42=18 marbles

total number of blue marbles=fraction of blue marbles×total number of marbles

where;

fraction of blue marbles=4/7 x

total number of marbles=42

replacing;

total number of blue marbles=(4/7)×42=24 marbles

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

JM is a diameter. 1/2 JM is the radius. 1/2 10 = 5

The radius is 5

The above statement is true if N is the center.

The semi circle has an area of pi r^2/2 = 5^2/2 * pi = 25/2 * pi

12.5 pi

The area of the other part is

(58/360) * pi * r^2 =

0.161 * pi * 5^2

0.161 * pi * 25

4.03 * pi

Now add these two parts together.

12.5pi + 4.03= 16.53 * pi.

That's one possible answer.

Another would be 16.53 * 3.14 = 51.897

If you have choices, list them.

Not a function.

It's conic section parabola. It's just a relation.
