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

Mathematics

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!

The price for a TV was decreased by 20% and then by 10%. By what percent was the new price lower than the original?
Finger [1]
Let's say the tv was 100$ . Reduced by 20% means the tv is now 100 - 20 = 80% of the original price.

0.8(100) = 80$
Reduced again; by 10% means that it is now 100-10 = 90% of the 80$
0.9(80) = 72$

sale price ÷ original price

72$ / 100$ = 0.72 which is 72% of the original price. Which is a mark down of:
100 - 72 = 28%

The new price is 28% lower than the original price.
