b = (a - 3)²
Our aim is to get <u><em>a</em></u> to be alone
1) First we get rid of what's in the brackets. So we subtracts each side by 3. Of course, the opposite of subtracting is adding:
b+3 = a²
2) Now we get rid of the squared in a. Opposite of squaring is square rooting.

3) There we have it. a is now by itself. We can test if we're right by substituting.
Lets make a=2
b=(a-3)²
b= (2-3)²
b= 1
NOW:


Answer:
1<x
Step-by-step explanation:
This means any number greater than one
If you simply want to multiply the answers given to you I would say answer c. 6lbs peanuts, 3 pound almonds and 2lb raisins. If you multiply 6*1.50 you get 9, you multiply 3*3.00 would also equal 9, and 2*1.50 is 3. 9+9+3=21
