<span>1/3(21-3a)=6-a
I simplified the equation to the form, which is simple to understand
<span>1/3(21-3a)=6-a
Simplifying:
<span> + 0.333333333333*(21-3a)=6-a
Reorder the terms in parentheses
<span>+(+7-1a)=6-a
Remove unnecessary parentheses
<span>+7-1a=+6-a
We move all terms containing a to the left and all other terms to the right.
<span>-1a+1a=+6-7
We simplify left and right side of the equation.
<span>a=-1
<span>0=-1
The left and right sides are not equal, therefore there is no solution. This equation is invalid
Hope this helped

Let the weight if a whole pizza be x grams
Then 1/4 of a pizza weighs x/4 grams and one eighth weighs x / 8. The difference is 32 grams so we can make the following equation:-
x/4 - x/8 = 32
x / 8 = 32
Multiplying both sides by 8:-
x = 8*32 = 256
Answer is 256 grams.
8 + 3b= -13
-8. -8
3b= -21
Divide by 3
B= -7
