Question

There are 10 less trumpet players than saxophone players. The number of saxophone play 3 times the number of trumpet players. How many trumpet players are there?​

Answer 1

Answer:

there are 20 trumpet players

Step-by-step explanation:

trumpet players=3x-10

saxophone players= 3x

3x + 10 = 3x

3x - 3x=10

therefore x = 10 players

trumpet players = 3x -10

= 3(10)-10

=30-10

= 20 players
