1 answer:

6 0

$10x-35+3ax=5ax-7a \\ 3ax-5ax+7a = -10x+35 \\ -2ax+7a = -10x+35 \\ a(-2x+7)=-10x+35 \\\\ a= \frac{-10x+35}{-2x+7} \\\\ a = \frac{5(-2x+7)}{(-2x+7)} \\\\ a=5$

If the average of x, y, and z is 32 and the average of y and z is 27, what is the average of x and 2x?

Orlov [11]

X + y + z = 32 * 3
27 + 27 + x = 96
X = 54
2x = 108
Average of x and 2x = (54+108) / 2 = 164 / 2 = 82
Average of X and 2X = 82
