Answer:
Step-by-step 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
[tex]w=x+y+z[/tex]
[tex]w=x+x+z[/tex]
[tex]w=2x+z[/tex]
substitute x<z
[tex]w>2x+x[/tex]
[tex]w>3x[/tex]
Both side divided by 3 then we get
[tex]\frac{w}{3}>x[/tex]
[tex]x<\frac{w}{3}[/tex].
Hazel will have number of blue balls is given by the equation
[tex]x<\frac{w}{3}[/tex].
Where x= Number of blue balls
w=Total number of blue balls.
