Answer:
a = 15/2
Step-by-step explanation:
3a−15=4a−3a
Combine like terms
3a - 15 = a
Subtract 3a from each side
3a-3a−15=a−3a
-15 = -2a
Divide each side by -2
-15/-2 = -2a/-2
15/2 =a

Answer:
Each steamer costs $2.5 and each party hat costs $1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of 1 steamer =x
Let the cost of 1 party hat =y
Three rolls of streamers and 15 party hats cost $30
Two rolls of streamers and four party hats for $11.
We solve the two equations simultaneously.
Multiply equation 1 by 2 and equation 2 by 3
6x+30y=60
6x+12y=33
Suntract
18y=27
y=1.5
From 6x+30y=60
6x+30(1.5)=60
6x+45=60
6x=60-45=15
x=2.5
Since x=2.5 and y=1.5
Each steamer costs $2.5 and each party hat costs $1.5
Well if my math is correct, x= -7, meaning 4x-4= (4*-7)-4. That equals -32.
Hope this helps.
