Answer:Simplifying
a = 1 + 0.3333333333b + 1.666666667c
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
3a + -1b + -5c = 3
Solving
3a + -1b + -5c = 3
Solving for variable 'a'.
Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add 'b' to each side of the equation.
3a + -1b + b + -5c = 3 + b
Combine like terms: -1b + b = 0
3a + 0 + -5c = 3 + b
3a + -5c = 3 + b
Add '5c' to each side of the equation.
3a + -5c + 5c = 3 + b + 5c
Combine like terms: -5c + 5c = 0
3a + 0 = 3 + b + 5c
3a = 3 + b + 5c
Divide each side by '3'.
a = 1 + 0.3333333333b + 1.666666667c
Simplifying
a = 1 + 0.3333333333b + 1.666666667c
