The answer is C: The size of the fish Joe can catch is a function of the strength of his fishing line.
1/2 + 1/3 = 3/6 + 2/6 = 5/6.....so 5/6 of the total marbles are red and white.
That means 1/6 are blue. So if 6 are blue, then 1/6 of the total marbles = 6
1/6x = 6
x = 6 * 6/1
x = 36.....there are 36 total marbles
1/2 are red.....so 1/2(36) = 36/2 = 18 are red
1/3 are white......1/3(36) = 36/3 = 12 are white
and 6 are blue.
659/8 is 82.375 so its would be 82<span>

1 notebook costs $3.45
let's turn this into 2 equations, n being notebook price, and b being binder price ->
mandy -> 3n + b = 5.85
jordan -> 2n + b = 4.65
we need to take one equation, simplify for b, and plug it into the other equation, let's take jordan's equation for this ->
b = 4.65 - 2n
plug it into mandy's equation
3n + (4.65 - 2n) = 5.85
simpify until you get n = 1.20
take this and plug it back into jordan's equation ->
2(1.20) + b = 4.65
simplify until you get b = 2.25
plus this value into mnady's equation ->
3n + (2.25) = 5.85
simplify until you get that n = 2.25
