He had 40 pencils left after he gave away 8, so originally he had 40 + 8 pencils, which is 48.
Now, he bought 4 packages, which had a total of 48 pencils, so divide 48 by 4, which is 12. He had 12 pencils in each package.
To determine the solution arithmetically, first add 8 to 40, then divide 48 by 4.
To determine the solution algebraically, set up and solve the equation 40 = 4x - 8.
Each package contained 12 pencils.
Hope this helps
h(x) = 3x + 5
h(a) = 27
We can write this as 3a + 5 = 27
Now, we just need to solve for a.
<em><u>Subtract 5 from both sides</u></em>
3a = 22
<em><u>Divide 3 from both sides.</u></em>
a = 7.33
Now, let's plug 7.33 back into the original equation.
3 * 7.33 + 5 = 27
22 + 5 = 27
27 = 27 √ this is correct
