What is the value of \( a \) in the equation \( 3a + b = 54 \) when \( b = 9 \)?

Asked by jonros646

Answer (2)

The first step is to substitute "9", where be is in the equation. Then, subtracting 9 from each side fo the equation gives you 3a = 45. Finally, by dividing each side by 3, your result will be a=15.
