Answer:

a=19

Step-by-step explanation:

8=1/3(a+5)

To solve for a, multiply each side by 3

3*8=3*1/3(a+5)

24 = a+5

Subtract 5 from each side

24-5 = a+5-5

19 =a

Answer:

a = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation of:

\displaystyle{8 = \dfrac{1}{3}(a+5)}

First, multiply both sides by 3. That will clear the denominator which makes it easier to solve for a variable:

\displaystyle{8 \cdot 3= \dfrac{1}{3}(a+5) \cdot 3}\\\\\displaystyle{24= a+5}

Subtract both sides by 5 to isolate the variable:

\displaystyle{24-5=a+5-5}\\\\\displaystyle{19=a}

Therefore, the value of a is 19.

Solve the equation 7/z-1 = 9/z+4
algol [13]

Answer:

z is equal to 18.5

Step-by-step explanation:

When an equation is in the format a/b = c/d, the quickest way to simplify it is to cross multiply.  Each side is multiplied by the other sides denominator, eliminating the division:

\frac{7}{z-1} = \frac{9}{z + 4}\\7(z + 4) = 9(z - 1)\\7z + 28 = 9z - 9\\7z - 9z = -9 - 28\\-2z = -37\\z = 37/2\\z = 18.5

So z is equal to 18.5
