Let's denote Cassandra's younger brother's height as B.
According to the problem, Cassandra's height is 6 inches less than 3 times her younger brother's height, so we can write the equation:
C = 3B - 6
Now we need to represent this equation in the form of PX plus Q equals R.
To do this, we need to rearrange the equation:
3B - C = 6
Since we're looking for the brother's height, we want to isolate B on one side of the equation. We can do this by adding C to both sides:
3B = C + 6
Now, let's rewrite this equation in the form of PX plus Q equals R:
3B - C = -(-6)
So, the equation in the form of PX plus Q equals R is:
3B - C = -6
Cassandra measured her height at 63 inches that is 6 inches less than three times her younger brothers height. How tall is her younger brother write an equation in the form of PX plus Q equals R2 represent the problem.
