You and your friend go to a Carnival and encounter the following puzzle at one of the game tables. There are 27 red and blue marbles in the bag. The number of red marbles is 5 less than 3 times the number of blue marbles. You are given two minutes to figure the puzzle out, and if you win, you get a giant pink stuffed Panda. A. Write a system of equations for the situation above, then solve the system.

B. How many red marbles are there?

C. How many blue marbles are there?

answer: ok

step-by-step explanation:

hi,

i'm 75% sure the answer is 1,1 to both lines.

have a great day

step-by-step explanation:

12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 7 hours.

4: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 3 hours.

this means that from 4: 00 p.m to 7: 00 p.m. this represents 3/7 of what was lost from 12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m.

after knowing this, after doing 11,600 - 6,800 = 4,800

4,800 represents 3/7 of what was lost for 7 hours.

we then divide 4,800 by 3 which gets 1,600.

because we know that 1,600 represents 1/7 of how much water was lost, we just have to multiply by 7, which gets 11,200.   after adding 11,200 to how much water was left at 7: 00 p.m. which was 6,800. 11,200 + 6,800 = 18,000

this means that the pool originally had 18,000 gallons in the pool.

you can also check your work by doing 18,000 - 4(1600), which becomes           1800 - 6400 which gets you 11,600.

what is the answer to this
