A bag contains white marbles and blue marbles, 57 in total. The number of white marbles is 9 more than 2 times the number of blue marbles. How many white marbles are there? answer it ASAP im on a time quiz PLEase

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of white marbles and y = number of yellow marbles.

x + y = 57  => x = 57 - y

Also, x = 3 + 5y

Substitute x for y.

57 - y = 3 + 5y => 57 - 3 = 54 = 6y

So, y = 9

Since x (our answer) = 3 + 5 (9),

x = 48.

Check: 48 + 9 = 57 total

let me know if this helped :)

the best buy, is the 4- kilogram bag of lollipops for $18.40.

step-by-step explanation:

i found my answer by dividing the cost of each bag by their respective weights.

14.88 divided by 2 = 7.44

17.29 divided by 3 = 5.77

18.4 divided by 4 = 4.6

24.4 divided by 5 = 4.88

by this, i found that the 4 kilo bag is the best buy.

step-by-step explanation:

given

y + 3 = - 4(x - 2) ← distribute the parenthesis

y + 3 = - 4x + 8 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

y = - 4x + 5 → d
