What is 2a+3b=5 B=a-5?

Mathematics
1 answer:
galben [10]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

a = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in the b-value which is a-5 into the equation to make it look like this, 2a + 3(a - 5) = 5.  Then, distribute 3 into a - 5 to get 3a - 15 when expanded.  Combine the two like terms 2a and 3a to get 5a.  Then, add 15 on both sides to get to this equation which is 5a = 20.  Divide 5 on both sides to get your a-value which is 4.
