Answer:
a=6
Step-by-step explanation:
to find the value of a you need to simplify the equation first. so...
3(a+3)-6=21 (you remove the bracket first)
3a+9-6=21
3a+3=21 (you collect the like terms then)
3a=21-3
3a=18 (then you both divide both sides by 3 to find the value of a)
a=18/3
a=6
to check your answer substitute 3 instead of a
3(a+3)-6=21
3(6+3)-6=21
3(9)-6=21 (according to BODMAS since multiplication comes first you multiply 3 with 9 before subtracting it from 6.)
29-6=21
21=21
Answer:
7x² - 6x - 18
Step-by-step explanation:
7x² - 6(x + 3)
multiply with -6
7x² - 6x - (6 × 3)
evaluate
= <u>7x² - 6x - 18</u>
Answer:
Since each bag has 9strawberries and lemon she gives out 10 strawberries and lemon so she remains with 9 and a quarter bags .
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember each bag contains 9 so she has to pick either one strawberry or a lemon so in the 9th bag she remains with 8 candies.

Answer:
r = 1/9
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, solve the equation for r:
y = rx
y/x = r . . . . . . . divide by x
__
Since r is a constant, it will be the same for any corresponding pairs of x and y. It is convenient to choose both x and y as integers, as in the third table entry.
r = y/x = 5/45
r = 1/9 . . . . . . . . . reduced fraction
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
It is not a bad idea to check to see that this works with other values of x and y. For the first line of the table, we have x = 11:
y = rx = (1/9)(11) = 11/9 = 1 2/9 . . . . matches the table value
