Francis Gordon · Answer 1

A=1 and b = 10.2 by adding and subtracting and converting

Helena Huff · Answer 2

Replace the value of x in the equation

-3/5 (3-5) + 4*3 = 3a+b

6/5 + 12 = 3a+b

66/5=3a+b

66=15a+5b

a=1 and b=10.2

What values of a and b in the equation shown, will result in an equation whose only solution is x=3?-3/5 (x-5) + 4x = ax+b
