A^2 + 5^2 = 10^2
a^2 + 25 = 100
a^2 = 100-25
a^2 = 75
a = sqrt(75) = 5sqrt(3)
answer is A
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
Answer: 2
<u>Explanation:</u>
A pond had 60 fish but 10 were added so now the pond has 70 fish.
The probability of choosing a carp is 1/2 so
= 35 are now carp.
There were 27 carp and now there are 35 carp so 8 carp were added.
10 fish were added and 8 of them were carp so 2 of them were tench.
