<em>Answer: There are 5 trumpet players and 15 saxophone player</em>


<em>Step-by-step explanation: Let a be the number of trumpet players </em>

<em>Let b be the number of saxophone players </em>

<em>--------------------- </em>

<em>(1) a = b-10 </em>

<em>(2) b =3a </em>

<em>---------------- </em>

<em>Substitute  </em>

<em>(2) into (1) </em>

<em>(1) a =3a-10 </em>

<em>(1) 2a =10  </em>

<em> </em>

<em> (1) a = 5and </em>

<em>(2) b = 3(5)(2)  </em>

<em>b =  15 </em>

<em>------------------ </em>

<em>There are 5 trumpet players and 15 saxophone player</em>
