X= # students who got lower grades
2x+3= # students with grade A

STEP 1:
Add the two sets above equal to 24.

x + (2x + 3)= 24
combine like terms

3x + 3= 24
subtract 3 from both sides

3x= 21
divide both sides by 3

x= 7 (# students lower than A)


STEP 2:
substitute x value from step 1 to find # grade A students

=2x + 3
=2(7) + 3
=14 + 3
=17 (# grade A students)


CHECK:
x + (2x + 3)= 24
7 + 2(7) + 3= 24
7 + 14 + 3= 24
24= 24


ANSWER: There were 17 students with grade A.

Hope this helps! :)

Given:

The expression is:

6x^2+3x+21

To find:

The factor of the given expression by GCF.

Solution:

We have,

6x^2+3x+21

Here, 3 is the greatest common factor (GCF) of 6x^2,3x,21.

Taking out GCF, we get

6x^2+3x+21=3(2x^2+x+7)

Therefore, the required factor form of the given expression is 3(2x^2+x+7).
