What is the value of a in the equation 3 a + b = 54, when b=9

Mathematics
1 answer:
slavikrds [6]2 years ago
6 0

To solve this plug in 9 for b and solve for a like so...

3a + 9 = 54

9 must be combined with 54. To do this you must subtract 9 from both sides. This will cancel out 9 from the left and bring it over to the right

3a + (9 - 9) = 54 - 9

3a + 0 = 45

3a = 45

Now we must isolate the a. To do this you have to divide 3 to both sides. This will make 3 on the left side 1 and bring 3 over to the other side

3a/3 = 45/3

1a = 15

a = 15

Hope this helped!

Can someone help me with this
V125BC [204]

Answer:  Period = 4

               Amplitude = 3

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Period is the interval of one "cycle" before the pattern repeats.

If you notice that when x = 0, y = -4.  

When does the pattern repeat (reach -4 again)?

Answer: when x = 4.

So the interval of one "cycle" is 4 units -->  Period = 4.

Amplitude=\dfrac{Max-Min}{2}=\dfrac{2-(-4)}{2}=\dfrac{6}{2}=\bold{\large\boxed{3}}
