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

An example of dependent events is drawing a blue marble out of one jar and then drawing a
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

<u>Answer:</u>

A red marble out of the same jar, without replacing the first marble.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Dependent events are those which involve a first event which affects the outcome of the second event.

This means that the probability of the second event changes because of the occurrence of the first event.

So if a blue marble is drawn out of one jar, then drawing a red marble out of the same jar, without replacing the first marble would be an example of dependent events.
