Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The number of blue marbles be 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

A drawer has some red ,green and blue marbles.

There are 33 marbles .

there are 4 times as many red marbles as green marbles.

Let us assume that the number of green marbles be g .

Than Red marbles = 4g

There are half as many blue marbles as green marbles.

Than

Number\ of\ blue\ marbles =\frac {Number\ of\ green\ marbles}{2}

Number\ of\ blue\ marbles =(g)/(2)

Than the equation becomes

g + 4g + (g)/(2) = 33

Than simplify the above

2g + 8g + g = 33* 2

11g = 66

g= (66)/(11)

g = 6

Number\ of\ blue\ marbles =(6)/(2)

Number of blue marbles = 3

Therefore the number of blue marbles be 3 .

Answer 2

the ratio of the point (-3,k) divides the line segment joining the points (-5,-4) and (-2,3) also find the value of k

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

midpoint theorem : (mx₂+nx₁/m+n , my₂+ny₁/m+n)

(-3, k) = ( -3*-2 + k*-5/-3+k  , -3*3 + k*-4/-3+k)

(-3, k) = (6-5k/-3+k , -9-4k/-3+k)

Compare x values of  both side ;

-3 = 6-5k/-3+k

-3 *( -3+k) = 6-5k

-3*-3 +k *-3 = 6-5k

9 -3k = 6- 5k

5k -3k = 6 - 9

2k = -3

k= -3/2

Part B: Solve this equation justifying each step with an algebraic property of equality. (6 points)

Part C: How many movie tickets did Erica purchase last month?

Answers

A) Let t represent the number of tickets Erica bought. The the equation describing her rebates can be written as

... 3t + 0.80×15 = 18

B) Here's the solution to the equation.

... 3t + 12 = 18 . . . . . . simplify; rules of arithmetic

... 3t = 6 . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 12; subtraction property of equality

... t = 2 . . . . . . . . . . . . divde by 3; division property of equality

C) Erica bougth 2 movie tickets last month.
