Question

What is 3a+2c=26 solve for a and c

Answer 1

Simplifying

3a + 2b + c = 26

Solving

3a + 2b + c = 26

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-2b' to each side of the equation.

3a + 2b + -2b + c = 26 + -2b

Combine like terms: 2b + -2b = 0

3a + 0 + c = 26 + -2b

3a + c = 26 + -2b

Add '-1c' to each side of the equation.

3a + c + -1c = 26 + -2b + -1c

Combine like terms: c + -1c = 0

3a + 0 = 26 + -2b + -1c

3a = 26 + -2b + -1c

Divide each side by '3'.

a = 8.666666667 + -0.6666666667b + -0.3333333333c

Simplifying

a = 8.666666667 + -0.6666666667b + -0.3333333333c

Answer 2

Hi there!

Your answers are:

A= -2/3c + 8 & 2/3

C= -3/2a + 13

Explanation:

Solving for A:

3a+2c = 26

-2c

3a= -2c+26

/3

a= -2/3c + 8 & 2/3

Solving for C:

3a+2c= 26

-3a

2c = -3a+26

/2

c= -3/2a + 13

Hope this helps
