Hi there!
There are two steps to take when solving this equation, but before we even think about that, let's start by rewriting the equation.
5a + 17 = 47
Step 1) Subtract 17 from both sides.
5a + 17 - 17 = 47 - 17
5a = 30
Step 2) Divide both sides by 5.
5a/5 = 30/5
a = 6
So, your final answer therefore is
a = 6
Hope this helps!
TIP - This method can be used when solving any equation with 1 variable. :D

Answer:
Students did not watch either game = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Total no. of students = 100
Students watched the Super Bowl = 85
Students watched the Stanley Cup = 25
Students watched both games = 20
Students did not watch either game = ( Total no. of students ) - ( Students watched the Super Bowl ) + ( Students watched the Stanley Cup ) - ( Students watched both games )
Students did not watch either game = 100 - (85 + 25 - 20)
Students did not watch either game = 100 - 90
Students did not watch either game = 10
