The expression 3a + b represents the sum of three times the value of variable 'a' and the value of variable 'b'. This can also be written as 3 times 'a' plus 'b'. To simplify this expression, you would combine the like terms, which in this case are the terms with 'a'. So, the simplified form of 3a + b is 3a + b.
This expression can be factored. ab + 3a + b2 + 3b = a(b + 3) + b(b + 3) = (a + b)(b + 3)
3a+ax+3b+bx = 3(a+b)+(a+b)x = (a+b)(3+x)
-2a plus 3b
Thenx = (c - b) / 3a
5a + 4b - 3a =(5a - 3a) + 4b =2a + 4b =2 (a + 2b)
p=b+3a+c p-3a-c=b+3a-3a+c-c p-3a-c=b b=p-3a-c

The given expression can be simplified to: 3b-a
If a + b = 6, what is the value of 3a + 3b?
This expression can be factored. ab + 3a + b2 + 3b = a(b + 3) + b(b + 3) = (a + b)(b + 3)
3a+ax+3b+bx = 3(a+b)+(a+b)x = (a+b)(3+x)
7a-2b
a(b+3)+b(b+3)
= a + b - 2
To factor the expression 3ab + 3ac + 2b^2 + 2bc, we first look for common factors among the terms. We can factor out a 3a from the first two terms, and a 2 from the last two terms. This gives us 3a(b + c) + 2(b^2 + bc). Next, we notice that we can factor out a b from the second term in the second parenthesis, giving us the final factored form: 3a(b + c) + 2b(b + c).
-2a plus 3b
a + b + c = 180 b = 3a c = 5a Substituting the values of b and c into the first equation. a + 3a + 5a = 180 or 9a = 180 so that a = 20 then b = 3a = 3*20 = 60 and c = 5a = 5*20 = 100
