Let number of yellow marbles = x
Let number of red marbles = y
Let number of blue marbles = z
Given that Finley has 152 yellow, red, and blue marbles in a bag.
So we get equation:
x+y+z=152...(i)
"He has seven more red marbles than yellow marbles" means:
y=x+7...(ii)
"three times as many blue marbles as yellow marbles." means:
z=3x...(iii)
Now we just need to solve those equations to find the answer.
Plug (ii) and (iii) into (i)
x+(x+7)+(3x)=152
x+x+7+3x=152
Which looks similar to choice (B)
5x+7=152
5x=145
x=29
Hence final answer is choice B.
Required equation is
x+x+7+3x=152
Number of yellow marbles = 29

I think the answer is b but I am not for sure
Answer:
ranges from 2890 miles to 5780 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us call
the number of miles the car travels, and
the number of gallons of gas that are used, then we have the relationship
<em>(this says the car travels 17 miles for each gallon of gas).</em>
Now, when
, we have


and when
, we have


So, when
goes from 170 to 340,
goes from
to
.
Therefore, when
ranges from 170 to 340 gallons, the distance traveled ranges from 2890 to 5780 miles.
