Josh, Ben and Rick have 70 marbles altogether. The ratio of the number marbles Josh has to the number of marbles Rick has is 1: 2. However, Ben has 15 marbles fewer than Rick. How many marbles does Ben have?

Answers

Answer:

Ben has 19 marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

First taking that josh and ricks ratio is 1:2, this would set up in an equation as [tex]2j = r[/tex] and with ben having 15 less than rick, his formula would be [tex]r = b + 15[/tex] as well as the total of all the boys marbles together being this [tex]j+r+b=70[/tex]

Now we put all of these equations into a set to answer them.

[tex]2j = r\\ r = b + 15\\j+r+b=70[/tex]

First we solve for j

[tex]2j = r\\ j=\frac{1}{2} r[/tex]

Then substitute j

[tex]j+r+b=70\\ \frac{1}{2}r+r+b=70\\ 2b+3r=140[/tex]

Then simplify and multiply by 2 to even out

[tex]r = b + 15\\ -b+r=15\\2b+3r=140[/tex]

Now eliminate the b variable and combine equations

[tex]2b+3r=140\\-2b+2r=30[/tex]

[tex]5r=170[/tex]

Now divide and solve for r

[tex]5r=170\\r=34[/tex]

Now we know Rick has 34 marbles of the 70 marbles, so we can substitute his number back into the original equation

[tex]-b+34=15\\b=19[/tex]

Now we know Ben has 19 marbles of the remaining 36, and can substitute his number as well

[tex]j=\frac{1}{2}(34)\\j=17[/tex]

And now we know how much everyone has, to check we rewrite all the equations with their respective numbers

[tex]11+34+19=70\\2(17)=34\\34=19+15[/tex]

[tex]70=70\\34=34\\34=34[/tex]

Which means the ordered pairing of (b, j, r) is (19, 17, 34)

Answers

Multiply each of the fractions by 1 to get them to have the same denominator.
1/4 x 3/3 = 3/12
1/3 x 4/4 = 4/12
New Equation:
3/12a + 4/12a + 8 = 22
now add up similar terms
7/12a + 8 = 22
subtract 8
7/12a = 14
multiply each side by your denominator
12(7/12)a=12(14)
7a=168
divide by 7
a = 24

A submarine is cruising at an elevation of
-250/3 meters below sea level, then
descends another 120% meters into the
sea. What is the new location of the
submarine?……NO LINKS

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

these are two different questions .

first i solve first

position of submarine= -250/3 meters below see level

height descended=120 % of 250/3=120/100 ×(250/3)=300,00/300=100 m

new location=-250/3+(-100)=-650/3 below see level.

2nd question

position of submarine=-250 2/3=-752/3 m below see level

height descended=120 5/8=965/8 m =-965/8 m below see level

new positin=-752/3+(-965/8)=-(6016+2895)/24=-8911/24=-371 7/24m below sesa level.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because this is a whole term in itself (no addition or subtraction), you can just directly find squares and factor them out. First, when looking at 8, you can factor out 4, to get 2 on the outside. Then, while looking at x cubed, you can factor out x squared, to get x on the outside, and when looking at y squared, you can just pull that outside itself, to get y. Now, we have one 2 and one x remaining, for a total of [tex]2xy\sqrt{2x}[/tex]

f(x) = 3-x/5

 

Explanation:

The inverse of a function completely swaps the x and y values. One way to find the inverse of a function is to switch the "x" and "y" in an equation

y=3x -5

turns into

x = 3y+5

Then solve the equation for y

x=3 y- 5

x+5 = 3y

the divide all by three

1/3x + 5/3 =y

f ( x ) − 1 = 3/1 x + 5/3
