Answer 1

Answer:a

Explanation:

Answer 2

Explanation:

We are given that Hazel has an assortment of red , blue and green balls.

The number of red balls=The number of red balls

The number of green balls is more than the number of blue balls .

Let number of blue balls=x, Number of red balls=y, Number of green balls =z

Let total number of balls=w

Then number of red balls,y= Number of blue balls=x

According to question

x=y

z>x

The total number of balls,w= sum of all balls

`w=x+y+z`

`w=x+x+z`

`w=2x+z`

substitute x<z

`w>2x+x`

`w>3x`

Both side divided by 3 then we get

`(w)/(3)>x`

`x<(w)/(3)`.

Hazel will have number of blue balls is given by the equation

`x<(w)/(3)`.

Where x= Number of blue balls

w=Total number of blue balls.
