Answer: 24
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of marbles in jar = 32
Let blue marbles be represented by b.
Since there are three times as many green marbles as blue. This means that green will be = 3 × b = 3b
We then add them together. This will be:
3b + b = 32
4b = 32
b = 32/4
b = 8
There are 8 blue marbles
Since green is 3× blue. Therefore,
Green = 8 × 3 = 24 marbles
Yes, we apply the distributive property to simplify this expression.
3*5 = 15
6*3 = 18
15 + 18 is the final answer.
The isosceles triangle length of each leg would have to be greater than 7
Please note that dilation does not affect angles. Thus, if an image is dilated the angle remains the same and does not change.
Therefore, even if 
is dilated to 
by a factor of 1.5 (or by any factor for that matter), the linear dimensions of the original triangle will either get stretched or get shrunk by a factor of 1.5 but the angles of the original triangle will not be affected in any case.
Please note that this is true for all two dimensional geometric shapes.
