Explanation:
Let x and y be two positive whole numbers. They may or may not be equal.
The first bag has the ratio of red to blue as 3:5, which scales up to 3x:5x after multiplying both parts by x. We have 3x red and 5x blue.
The second bag has the ratio 3:2 which scales up to 3y:2y. This bag has 3y red and 2y blue.
We can make a handy table to keep track of all the expressions
[tex]\begin{array}{|c|c|c|}\cline{1-3}\text{ } & \text{Red} & \text{Blue}\\ \cline{1-3}\text{bag 1} & 3x & 5x\\ \cline{1-3}\text{bag 2} & 3y & 2y\\ \cline{1-3}\end{array}[/tex]
Based on that, we can then say:
The two red quantities add to R = 3x+3yThe two blue quantities add to B = 5x+2yEffectively, I added down along each column of that table.
Divide the two expressions for R and B to lead to the fraction 11/9, which is directly from the ratio 11:9
So,
(total red)/(total blue) = 11/9
R/B = 11/9
(3x+3y)/(5x+2y) = 11/9
---------------------
Let's cross multiply and then solve for y
(3x+3y)/(5x+2y) = 11/9
9(3x+3y) = 11(5x+2y)
27x+27y = 55x+22y
27y-22y = 55x-27x
5y = 28x
y = 28x/5
y = (28/5)x
y = 5.6x
We'll keep this in mind for later.
---------------------
Now let:
F = amount of marbles in the first bagS = amount of marbles in the second bagRecall that we had 3x red and 5x blue for the first bag. That means we have 3x+5x = 8x marbles in the first bag. Therefore, F = 8x.
Also, we had 3y red and 2y blue for the second bag.
So we have S = 3y+2y = 5y
Then we can apply further substitution to say
S = 5y
S = 5(5.6x) .... plug in y = 5.6x
S = 28x
---------------------
In short,
F = 8xS = 28xfor some positive whole number x. We don't have enough info to pin down what x is exactly; however, it doesn't really matter. This is because the x variable will cancel when dividing F over S
F/S = (8x)/(28x) = 8/28 = 2/7
The fraction 2/7 leads directly to the final answer of the ratio 2:7
In other words, the ratio 8x:28x simplifies fully to 2:7 after dividing both parts by 4x.
The ratio between the total marbles of the first bag and the second bag is 2:7.
What is an equation?An equation is a mathematical statement that is made up of two expressions connected by an equal sign.
Example:
2x + 4 = 9 is an equation.
We have,
x marbles in the first bag.
red marbles = 3x
blue marbles = 5x
y marbles in the second bag.
red marbles = 3y
blue marbles = 2y
Now,
Total red marbles in both bags.
3x + 3y = 11 _____(1)
3x = 11 - 3y
x = (11 - 3y) / 3
Total blue marbles in both bags.
5x + 2y = 9 ______(2)
From (1) and (2) we get,
Multiply 2 in (1).
6x + 6y = 22
6y = 22 - 6x _____(3)
Multiply 3 in (2)
15x + 6y = 27 ______(4)
Putting (3) in (4)
15x + 22 - 6x = 27
9x = 27 - 22
9x = 5
x = 5/9
Now,
x = 5/9 in (3)
6y = 22 - 6(5/9)
6y = 22 - 10/3
6y = (66 - 10)/3
y = 56/18
y = 28/9
Now,
First bag.
Red marbles = 3x = 3 x 5/9 = 5/3
Blue marbles = 5x = 5 x 5/9 = 25/9
Total marbles = 5/3 + 25/9 = (15 + 25)/9 = 40/9
Second bag.
Red marbles = 3y = 3 x 28/9 = 28/3
Blue marbles = 2y = 2 x 28/9 = 56/9
Total marbles = 28/3 + 56/9 = (84 + 56)/9 = 140/9
Now,
The ratio between the total marbles of the first bag and the second bag.
= 40 :140
= 4:14
= 2:7
Thus,
The ratio is 2:7.

22 of the 30 students in Evan's grade have a pet. What is the ratio of the number of students who do not have a pet to the number of students who have a pet?
Answer:
8 to 22
Step-by-step explanation:
if there are 22 people that have a pet whens there is 30 students in total, you have to do, 30-22, and 30-22=8 meaning there are 8 students who don't have pets.
And if already says 22 students have pets, therefore the answer is

Time = distance / speed
So time = 1.08 × 10⁸ / 3 × 10⁸

What's the formula for the area of a triangle?
Answer:
A=hb/2
To calculate the area of a triangle, multiply the height by the width (this is also known as the 'base') then divide by 2. Find the area of a triangle where height = 5 cm and width = 8 cm. A triangle is always half the area of a rectangle with the same height and width.
Hey there!
“ What's the formula for the area of a triangle?”
The area of triangle formula is:

angle A and angle B are supplementary angles. If m∠=(4x - 30) degree and m∠B =(4x-14) degree, then find the measure of ∠A
Answer:
<A = 26°
Step-by-step explanation:
4x - 30 + 4x - 14 = 180
Supplementary angles sum together to make 180
=> 4x + 4x = 16x
=> -30-14 = -44
16x = 180+44
16x = 224
x = 224/16
x = 14°
4(14) - 30 = 26°
A taxicab charges $3.00 per person
plus $1.25 per mile. What is the
greatest distance one passenger
could travel with a budget of
$28.00?
Answer:
I believe the answer would be 20 miles max for one passenger.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is because if you create an equation out of this, knowing that only one passenger will be riding, you will get:
$3.00+$1.25x=$28 ($3 added too $1.25 times the number of miles (x) which equals the total amount you have ($28)).
x being the number of miles (so we need to calculate for x)
$3 + $1.25x = $28
-subtract 3 on both sides-
$1.25x=$28-$3
$1.25x=$25
-divide by 1.25 on both sides-
x=$25/$1.25
x=20 miles
Not sure if all calculations are correct, but I hope this helps :)!

a
Both A and B
b
Only B
c
Only A
d
Neither A nor B
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
A does not represent a function because the x-value of 3 appears twice, and by the defenition of a function, the x-value cannot appear twice for it to be considered a function. B could be a function because the x-values are not repeated.
Therefore the answer is B, only B is a function.
