Answer: 24
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of marbles in jar = 32
Let blue marbles be represented by b.
Since there are three times as many green marbles as blue. This means that green will be = 3 × b = 3b
We then add them together. This will be:
3b + b = 32
4b = 32
b = 32/4
b = 8
There are 8 blue marbles
Since green is 3× blue. Therefore,
Green = 8 × 3 = 24 marbles
39 days so you would put 39 days till the bag was empty
6h + 5h - 3j = 11h - 3j (all u can do is combine like terms...if they're not like terms, they cannot be combined)
Using proportions, it is found that his tax rate is of 28.84%.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct(when both increase or both decrease) or inverse proportional(when one increases and the other decreases, or vice versa), can be built to find the desired measures in the problem, or equations to find these measures.
His tax rate is the proportion that the <u>deductions are of the total salary</u>, hence:
12,200/42,300 = 0.2884 = 28.84%.
Hence his tax rate is of 28.84%.
