Let red marbles = X.
The probability is 1 out of 5, written as 1/5
1/5 in terms of red marbles is equal to the number of red marbles divided by 5x, where 5x is the total number of marbles.
1/5 = x/5x
Now you have 5x total marbles, x red and 4x blue.
Add 5 more red and the new probability is:
(x+5)/(5x+5) = 1/3
Simplify:
3x+15 = 5x+5
Now solve for x:
Subtract 3x from both sides:
15 = 2x +5
Subtract 5 from each side:
2x = 10
Divide both sides by 2:
x = 10/2
X = 5
There were originally 5 red marbles.
Answer:
The answer is C
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean of math is 84, and the Mean of science is 85.
so, science is clearly one point higher
A triangle is rotated around N to give the primed version.
A. Same shape and size -- TRUE. Rotation doesn't change shape or size.
B. Corresponding points are equidistant to N. That's TRUE, each point is rotated around N to get its corresponding point, which will be the same distance from N.
C. DN=D'N. TRUE, just an example of corresponding points.
D. Corresponding side lengths unequal, FALSE. Rotation doesn't change lengths.
The answer is 28.26 because to find the area of a circle you need to do pie time radius squared.
Answer:
Adult tickets =125
Child tickets = 128
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of adult and children tickets sold be x and y respectively
So that
x+y= 253--------1
Since total sales/receipt is $2,771
And given that tickets for a dance recital cost $15 for adults and $7 for children hence
15x+7y= 2771-------2
Solving equation 1 and 2 simultaneously we have
x+y= 253---------------1
15x+7y= 2771----------2
Let us multiply equation 1 by 15 to get equation 3 to eliminate x and subtract equation 2 from 3
15x+15y=3795---------3
-{15x+7y= 2771----------2
0+8y=1024
8y= 1024
y= 1024/8
y= 128 tickets
So solve for x let us put y= 128 in equation 1
x+ 128=253
x=253-128
x= 125 tickets
