<span>1/3(21-3a)=6-a
I simplified the equation to the form, which is simple to understand
<span>1/3(21-3a)=6-a
Simplifying:
<span> + 0.333333333333*(21-3a)=6-a
Reorder the terms in parentheses
<span>+(+7-1a)=6-a
Remove unnecessary parentheses
<span>+7-1a=+6-a
We move all terms containing a to the left and all other terms to the right.
<span>-1a+1a=+6-7
We simplify left and right side of the equation.
<span>a=-1
<span>0=-1
The left and right sides are not equal, therefore there is no solution. This equation is invalid
Hope this helped

1) A basket of apples are given to a group of students. If 3 apples are given to each student, there will be 8 apples left. If 5
sattari [20]

Answer:

1) either 5 or 6 students in the group

2) 6 rooms are booked

Step-by-step explanation:

1) x students  

3x + 8 = apples

5 (x-1) + y (the one get less than 5 apples)

3x + 8 = 5 (x - 1) + y

3x + 8 = 5x - 5 + y

2x + y = 13

X       1       2      3      4      5      6

Y       11      9      7      5      3       1

because y < 5 so x = 5 or x = 6

2) x rooms are booked

4x + 20   total students

8 (x-1) + y (the students in room not full))

4x + 20 = 8 (x-1) + y

4x + 20 = 8x - 8 + y

4x + y = 28

X       1       2      3      4      5      6

Y       24    20    16    12     8      4

y < 8 answer is 6 rooms
