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:
160/17 miles per gallon
Step-by-step explanation:
The typical rate of distance and gallons is distance per gallons, so divide the distance by the number of gallons.
(320 miles)/(34 gallons) = 160/17 miles per gallon
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To simplify:
First of all, let us write 18 and 162 as product of prime factors:
The pairs are underlined as above.
While taking roots, only one of the numbers from the pairs will be chosen.
Now, taking square roots.
So, the given expression becomes:
So, the answer is:

Hello :
<span>(4y-3)²=72
4y-3 = </span>√72 or 4y-3 = - √72
y= (3+√72) /4 or y= (3 - √72) /4
Answer:
x =44
Step-by-step explanation:
0.2x + (-0.9) + 1.7 = 9.6
Combine like terms
.2x +.8 = 9.6
Subtract .8 from each side
.2x +.8 -.8 = 9.6 -.8
.2x = 8.8
Divide each side by .2
.2x/.2 = 8.8/.2
x =44
